Interesting argument. 20,000? Where does that number come from? That's 111% of the TH quota for six months. Actual permits used?
Oh, and WAG bags retail for 2.50 - 3.00. I'd be surprised if Inyo pays half that. Besides, its a marginal cost, and you can't really compare it to what would be a largely fixed cost of the toilet installation and service.
I actually agree with your bottom line though. Toilets. They work. The WAG bag system has already failed, and speaking truth to stupid requires admitting that. The only alternatives are reducing the TH quota and toilets. Which work fine between Yosemite Valley and Half Dome, BTW, with a hell of a lot more traffic than MWMT gets. And yes, its in designated wilderness, too.
