2040's EU: The true and welcoming land of opportunities

I hope and expect that our empathy for those from afar will increase in the next 20 years, and the international mobility of vulnerable people will not be as difficult and exhausting as it is today.

On the one hand, I would like 2040 to be a year in which those who are forced to flee their homes due to human or climatic catastrophes do not face unnecessary obstacles in their flight, resulting from prejudice and discrimination. I close my eyes and I see reception centres which respect and promote human rights, politicians that do not trade with border control measures, administrations that protect vulnerable people, laws that do not curtail human rights under any pretext or justification, and judicial systems that do not deviate from such red lines.

In addition, I also hope that those who cannot develop their full potential in their home country will be able to access the facilities we have in Europe, either to bring that talent back home or to stay in the EU. At present, the legal pathways to access the EU territory are mainly focused on people with higher education, entrepreneurs or people with some purchasing power. However, I believe that the ideal is to open up more circular migration channels through which those who do not have much can have a better future. This is not only "in our interest" because it would reduce irregular immigration, but I believe it should be an obligation, as a significant world power.

In my vision of an ideal 2040, mobility should be open to all - not a headache for those who need to flee or a utopia for those who cannot afford it.

Spokoj i radość do końca życia

I hope that in 2040 I will still live, together with my family, in health, that then it will be easier, quieter, calmer.I would like to have peace in the world, so that the world will be more natural, as truly as it once was, and not burdened with some sick laws and absurdities.I would like there to be as few sick people as possible, so that all the diseases of the world will be cures , access to a doctor will be a pleasure and all the necessary tests a man would have done immediately and free of charge.I would like people to stop robbing the state, because then there would be a chance to somehow improve this world.Let all absurd laws that supposedly care about the environment disappear.Let the country be ruled by wise and good people.

Inflation

I would want that the goods in stores would be cheaper and that the inflation stops or salaries espacialy in slovenia should get bigger because the goods are as expensive as in northern countries where salaries are a lot bigger and better. And rent should be cheaper because in Ljubljana it exedes the minimal pay for a one room apartment and buying a apratment is extreme too, one room sells for 80000€. And the medicine should be faster too, the queues are at least one year long for a urgent operation.

Geluk zit in een grote hoek

When I walk down my greened street, I find that after the turbulent years in which part of the former EU has separated, it has finally brought peace and clarity. The stricter legislation in force in the slimmed-down EEC is bearing fruit in many areas. Safety and trust are slowly returning. Utopias about integration have been thrown overboard and Western core values seem to be returning. External borders are tightly guarded and the EEC has an equal policy of quality of life rather than quantity. Fortunately, we have resisted the rise of billionaires and oligarchs in the 1930s and find ourselves in a prosperous, pragmatic and happy continent where we have gone through the eye of the needle.

Die KI der Zukunft zu Hause

Life is AI-controlled. No area in which it does not operate or even dominate in whole or in part. Whether in road traffic, and especially in public transport, health care and medicine, in education from the KiTa to schools to universities, in all branches of the economy and especially in our everyday life at home. The AI is the first to welcome us when we open the door at home. By means of voice recognition, she immediately knows which family member has just entered the apartment, recognizes the mood of this person by various parameters such as breathing, blood pressure, body temperature, etc., plays the appropriate music at ideal volume , adjusts the lighting and the room temperature appropriately and prepares a corresponding drink. She asks what she can do to make the end of the day / further daily routine and to improve the mood. She makes suggestions and presents ideas-based on the habits and preferences of the human being-about whom she knows everything that one can somehow find out. The AI is almost the best roommate you could wish for, isn't it …?!
