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.

Hopefully someone will read it and take action. There is an urgent need to solve the housing problem. Creating a family is practically impossible if you have to be in a rented apartment at a high cost, from which the owner of the apartment with a small child can throw you out sometimes grazing him. It is no wonder that there is a decline in fertility in the EU and in lust if young families do not have a basic condition for creating families. Social security. No one asks you how much money you give a month for rent, and you don't get a loan at the bank, which installment would be less than what I'm paying for renting now. Where is the logic here? No wonder people emigrate from their countries to countries where conditions are better. There is no security either, these refugees, whom you say are doctors and engineers, and in fact ordinary monkeys are incapable of adapting to the civilization we have here. They are dangerous, endangering girls, children and senior citizens. You better pay the workers who do the ordinary work well, but there will be enough labour in the EU. On the other hand, we give ourselves a social contribution, beautiful apartments, while we Slovenes by nationality Europeans have to literally mantra to get a rented apartment.. nonsense. Let Europe take care of its people, you will not solve the migration problem in the EU, you can only solve it at its origin! Thank you.

I would like to see an environmentally friendly world where the economy is more evenly distributed between people, where we take care of the environment and animals and have environmentally friendly technology and development. We have a democratic policy that can work together despite ideologies. We are more self-sufficient and don't need to import that much anymore. Domestic sustainable production is favoured. We have a shorter work week and we live a more sustainable life. We eat less with meat and have free healthcare including dental care and optics. We have lower rates of sick leave because of this. We value other influencers, fillers and cosmetics. We have a balance between birth rate and death rate. We invest in research, inventions and industry that lead to sustainability. We invest in preventive measures to avoid crime and war. We work in collaboration in many areas to cope with all of the above. We also work to prevent corruption.

Futuro di pace

I wish that in ten to twenty years my grandchildren could live in a world without wars. I would like that, once the disastrous Putinian period has passed, even in Russia we return to live with the widest freedom. May all the peoples of Europe live in complete harmony and enjoy all the freedoms that a man needs.

Una città senza delinquenza e senza migranti

A city must be safe. To be safe it must be without migrants and without criminals. To do this requires certain penalties. Those who steal from Milan and Rome in the metro and on public transport should be arrested and sentenced. This is the only way to combat micro-crime. The future I have described refers to the safety and liveability of cities. I live in Turin and even the city of Turin begins to be unsafe in many areas.
