Imagine you have been hired by the government of Nepal to recommend the Mt. Everest permit system. Mount Everest climbing permits cost $11,000 per person and are unlimited. Yet, the number of people who die attempting to climb keeps rising. However, looking at the rate of death per number of successful summits, Mt. Everest is one of the safest 8,000m+ peaks in the world. What would you recommend? Should the system be changed at all? If so, how can it maintain revenue while protecting human life?
