You would reward theft?

Even theft from an enemy?

What would Jesus say?

Actually he did provide the link to the NYT article and his brief comment made me want to read more, and which is quite substantial and informative. If this was MSNBC or WaPo, they made have found a way to blame this in Climate Change.

May 26, 2019 NEW DELHI — Ed Dohring, a doctor from Arizona, had dreamed his whole life of reaching the top of Mount Everest. But when he summited a few days ago, he was shocked by what he saw. Climbers were pushing and shoving to take selfies. The flat part of the summit, which he estimated at about the size of two Ping-Pong tables, was packed with 15 or 20 people. To get up there, he had to wait hours in a line, chest to chest, one puffy jacket after the next, on an icy, rocky ridge with a several-thousand foot drop. He even had to step around the body of a woman who had just died.

Fly-by-night adventure companies are taking up untrained climbers who pose a risk to everyone on the mountain. And the Nepalese government, hungry for every climbing dollar it can get, has issued more permits than Everest can safely handle, some experienced mountaineers say.

Nepal has no strict rules about who can climb Everest, and veteran climbers say that is a recipe for disaster. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/05/26/world/asia/mount-everest-deaths.html#commentsContainer
