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.

I care about our quality of life.
I care about our quality of life. I believe that we have drifted away from our human nature and consequently from nature/environment, which - let us not forget - we are its species. This of course has an impact on many things and first of all on health. I would like to see human-centred policies implemented in all aspects of everyday citizenship. To put people, their mental health, their personal progress and flourishing first. To pay attention to how satisfied (and why not, happy) people feel about their lives. What really matters to them?
