2040-beter of niet?

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, 95% of the population will drive electric cars and, in addition, small cars will fly to work anywhere in the world.
There will be no economic connection with the different continents because it will be every man for himself.
This will give the home economy a serious boost and unemployment will be virtually non-existent.
Refugees will invariably be refused entry - the borders will do extra checks.
The military arsenal will be brought back up to standard and military service reintroduced because there will always be rulers who want to expand their borders.
Europe will have to continue to arm itself against Russia and China but there will be a good agreement between the european countries
There will be one single currency for all european countries and also the belaqstins laws, taxation systems will be aligned and equivalent.
Whether people will be happier remains a question mark.

Better Eu as union of states not as eu as a single nation, protected from outside influence, yet respectful of local nations
Europe with free trade of eu made products. An eu wide aliexpress or temu serving all goods including eu and they are similarly priced. No eu restrictions on regions (device or product meant for region x) availability to vacation in eu cheaper than outside of eu partner country. Ability to buy flexible train tickets to arrive to destanation through laisure stays in different cities and not having to worry about next train or bus. Ability and ease of finding and reloactiolng workers from one region or state to other with motivation for these workers to return to the region they are from after some time. Eu has fair comoetition inside eu and a outside products ae comparably priced. Return to traditional values includibg respect of all religions inculing christianity. Avoiding dominace of dsngerous religions like islam. Easy data share of people data if person allows between member nations. National membernations nit mixed eu with similar values outside but different inisde whilst all are accepted expect non eu if they want to bring their cultural valued that do not fit local al culture

There's peace in the world, AI can improve certain sectors, and let's hope the climate doesn't deteriorate even more, to avoid all the problems of drought and flooding...when I was young, progress seemed a little out of reach, but now it's happened so quickly, and it's going to happen again very quickly, we can't even imagine flying cars, robots, driverless cars, I never thought when I was young that I'd be able to see all this one day!

In the 2040s, everything is different from today. It is all a click of a button, a click of a mouse or a click of a finger. There is no more paper newspaper, no more petrol in cars. I drive a new electric car, I do not wear a new car. All my cards and news are in one app on my mobile phone. Maybe that is not good, or maybe it is modern technology.

I would like for there to be widespread sustainable energy usage across the globe. I wish for the national parks to be preserved and for people to place value and emphasis on keeping those places untouched. So many people appreciate their beauty and I want for future generations to experience these areas just as we have.
