It's fun! For those who DON'T have to live in the neighbourhood... I have to put up with this anachronism display on daily basis. I cannot imagine anywhere else in Europe, in the XXI century, civilised citizens rendering themselves such examples of human exploitation! It is only possible here in Madeira because of the highest rate of functional illiteracy in Europe (60%!!!) These men cannot perform any other professional activity for they hardly have their fourth year of basic school training.
This is logistically possible, and desirable, by decision-makers who know this people would become a social nuisance, were they not able to pull the sledges down the road, dangerously competing for space amidst the vehicles, compromising their knees after this continuous shock and stress down the road. It is such a poor display to see these guys in the end of the day drinking their lives away for they don't have any further horizons.
