So Europe in 2040. I would like to see much more cooperation and much less lying. I will talk about that a little later. A green future, of course, but not at any price, a much slower and actually environmentally friendly transition. This is particularly true of the car industry and the jobs in it. I predict that in 2040 a lot of transport will be by air, so cheaper, faster, safer and preferably with minimal refreshment. Ideally, less should be spent on defence, because that automatically means human lives, and deterrence is a children's story. This is where corporations play a much bigger role than politics. So they need to be controlled and restrained. And the money spent on defence should be invested in social welfare and, of necessity, in research and development. Now, about lying. It worries me when the President of the EU, a person in whom I am supposed to have complete confidence, publicly states that, say, Russia is harvesting electronics from washing machines in order to train its army. That the newspapers show a diametrically opposite picture of what is happening on the battlefield. That the EU has lost a great deal from the sanctions against Russia and nothing to gain. I could go on and on. I believe, however, that the evolution of man has not ended, that the man of the future will be more tolerant, that he will erase all the hatreds within him, that he will be open to everyone and anyone. This will not happen by 2040, not even by 2140, but it is already happening. The question that arises is...will there still be a 2040 for us...

It is 7:30 a.m. the awakening of the AI comes to give me the weather, and also the state of traffic in the aerobuses. I will prepare and reach the station where I will find the regulars who live in the same community island. This weekend if the weather permits, I will be able to spend two days away from the city in the protected nature.I am an average manager in a company specializing in agronomy, we manage breeders and growers who work in very well equipped farms. The world lives in peace and personal spirituality has replaced false religions. Politics too is curtailed and everything is run by assemblies of sages aided by AI. There is no longer a dictatorial Europe and everything is decided at the local level by the sages who change every three years. All the lies of the old elites were exposed and the protagonists were heavily punished. The drug has been almost completely eradicated and specialized recreation centers offer even stronger but safe and addiction-free sensations. The education of children is the subject of great attention and many harmful subjects are no longer taught. The death penalty has been reinstated for serious crimes, many judgments are rendered by AI and confirmed by sages.

Ukraine's war and Trump's government have awakened the Europeans. Ukraine was forced to make peace, NATO was prevented by the US, and it was admitted to the EC. The EC has set up a joint army, some of which is based in Ukraine. The bureaucracy has been radically simplified, applications must be completed after 6 months at the latest. Britain is back in the EC. Council of Europe decisions need 60 percent approval. The blockade of individual states no longer exists.

It would be nice if in 2040 viruses such as HIV and annoying pestilences such as cancer were to be considered eradicated. It would be nice if you could already determine at birth whether the child has serious diseases to expect, which you can then immediately eradicate. It would be nice if inflation could be reduced to a minimum. It would be nice if religions no longer matter. Because there is religion. Wars that can be prevented.

The Eu will dissilve. USA, Russia and China come to maybe not ideal, but still mutuallí acceteble agreement where Euope will have no choice at all except to adjust to the new World order. They will have to nomalise their reletionship with everyone. All those who won't comply, will be exiles, as simple as that. No Brussels dictate any more. National goverments will prevail. No LGBT, only conservative approach.
