I will be celebrating 2040 in 15 years. It's not a very distant prospect. I would like to be able to move between cities and between countries at a faster speed, in modern and comfortable means of transport. I imagine the centers of large cities closed to vehicular traffic and in the urban tissue definitely more greenery. Turned into green rest zones and supplied with spring drinking water, the existing tram and bus stops would give shelter and bring people closer together. Citizen police patrols on bicycles/horses would take care of the order in the city. Unified [colour] electric transport would carry passengers to selected places. The number of grocery stores where products from farmers/breeders in the region would be available would be limited. Medical clinics and offices would be abolished. Health would be cared for by a selected medical caregiver together with a doctor. Official matters would be dealt with remotely.

Lavoro leggero e tempo per sè

In 2040 many jobs will be replaced or helped by technology, this means less time will be needed to do them. I would like to see us be able to divide the work among the same number of people, so that no one is left jobless, but give a lighter work schedule (half of today's) to everyone.

Every human being is valuable regardless of his or her nationality, age, level of education, etc. The state has high social guarantees. The unemployment rate is very low. The tax system is benevolent to the population. Income tax 15%, VAT max 18%. Maximum 4 working days per week. Free medical care, free higher education. Public transport is free. Utilities are cheap. Borders are open, people can travel where they want. There is no threat of war, there are no wars in the world.

I don't know because I'm 68. In 15 years, I may not be around to know whether 2040 will be the future. Let's remain optimistic, but in 2040, at 83, my life is behind me. I'm thinking of my son, his family and, above all, my grandchildren. Will France still be a democracy? Has the Great Replacement begun? Has war devastated Europe? No, none of this: people have mellowed, our leaders have found solutions for a peaceful world, the ecological revolution is beginning to bear fruit, and the world is calmer and more serene. My grandchildren are flourishing in their work and in their lives. Their future looks bright.

Ma vie

In 2040 I'll be 67.... I hope to live out my days in peace and quiet, having found peace and learned from my mistakes. I imagine myself surrounded by my daughter and the family she will have built. I'd like to see a world without hatred, empathetic, where human beings take their place and accept that difference is a source of richness.
