Hero, erasing the permanent seasonality at the hospital is what's really difficult!

The article criticizes the President of the Regional Government of Madeira, Miguel Albuquerque, for investing 10.2 million euros in expanding the golf course in Porto Santo, justifying the decision with the argument of "erasing seasonality." The author questions the legitimacy invoked by Albuquerque, arguing that voters cast ballots for generic lists without knowing the true political intentions, and warns of historical precedents of golf courses that required repeated injections of public funds to remain operational. The criticism extends to the distortion of priorities, suggesting that resources should be channeled toward pressing needs such as housing, health, and cost of living, instead of "luxury lawns," accusing the politician of using propaganda and promises to maintain power.
