You are correct that if you are dead, you personally do not pay for the plot. However, the cost will most likely come from your estate (if you have any worth) or your relatives.
Standard language in American wills is that first the decedent directs that all his/her burial expenses be paid before any other disbursements are made. So, even though you may be dead, you still pay from your funds.
