I have several points on how I imagine the world to be fairer and better.
Firstly, pensions. The intergenerational contract is full of cheese and is more like a pyramid game than a real pension plan. for the intergenerational contract to work, every citizen needs 3-4 children, which means that every woman would have to give birth to between 6 and 8 children. i have been working since i was 15 and therefore i have paid enough into the fund until i am 62 and have also been paid in by my employers so that i could easily enjoy my pension at 62. However, as there are also people who study until the age of 30 and then work part-time and also want to retire at 62, I am paid less and my contributions are redistributed. Since the pension money has already been spent because of the generation contract, I just have to hope that a few more people will be found who will then dutifully finance my pension. The generation contract is like a pyramid game and should be abolished.
Security
Internal security: It is a fact that the internal security situation has deteriorated considerably since the influx of refugees. They come to a Christian Europe, mainly Austria and Germany, and want to live out their culture here, from which they have fled and which does not function peacefully. The inhibition threshold of Muslim people is sinking further and further so that they commit massacres and murders in Austria, rape children and women and as soon as you say something, these people call you a Nazi. You are not a Nazi if you kick a rapist where it really hurts and then demand that he has forfeited his right as a guest and must return to his homeland.
For me, a religion-free society would be much more sensible anyway, then there would be more room for science and without faith there would be no unbelievers.

External security: There is a lot of discussion about how we should defend ourselves against Russia if the USA does not support us against Russia. It is never said how we can achieve lasting peace with Russia. How an economy with Russia and the EU could work. A war would only please the arms lobby, otherwise it would bring no benefit. fieden benefits everyone.
Gender madness: It's time we stopped with the gender madness. If someone doesn't know what he/she is, just a quick grab in the pants solves the problem. There are 10 people in Austria who were either born without or with both genders. However, homosexuality is neither a disease nor a gender. you can love what you want and you want it as long as the people involved are not underage and consenting. Then "DEUTSCH Österreichisch" should be spoken again on ORF and not stuttering German with * or binnen-i. Teachers teach this at school. Anyone who knows German knows from this sentence that male and female teachers are meant. There is a female teacher that is to be used spetziell for female teaching staff. I feel discriminated against as a man that there is no word that Spetziel aims at male teaching staff.
Environmental protection is important, no question. However, cutting down the rainforest so that lithium can be mined to build batteries for electric vehicles is a wrong environmental idea! it does nothing for the world if Austria reduces greenhouse gases unless everyone pulls together. Germany and Poland are also building more coal-fired power plants to cover the energy requirements for e-mobility. this is illogical, because the efficiency of the combustion engine is better than that of coal-fired power plants and charging. In addition, battery production causes as much CO2 as a combustion engine emits with a mileage of 120000 km. Only then would the e-car amortize in the environmental balance sheet if the electricity did not come from coal-fired power plants, because then it would never reach zero balance. In addition, after 10 years the battery in electric vehicles is unusable and has to be replaced. It would be more beneficial to reduce the number of transport ships by producing many of them in the EU and not outsourcing everything to China or India. 3 largest transport ships need as much fuel annually as ALL motor vehicles worldwide. and transport ships are powered by heavy fuel oil and not by more environmentally friendly diesel or gasoline.

We should be proud of our Christian values and if someone does not adhere to our

I wish there was a law banning the use of cell phones by those under 16 and that all violent video games would disappear. That we could go back to being able to enjoy our city without the fear of walking the streets risking assault, mugging or the like

Sustainable cities
In 2040, at 41 years old, I envision a Europe that is more inclusive, innovative, and environmentally conscious. One of the most important issues for me is sustainable urban living—creating cities that are both technologically advanced and deeply connected to nature. In my ideal future, cities are designed for people, not just for cars. Public transportation is fully electric, efficient, and free, making private cars almost unnecessary. Green spaces are everywhere—rooftop gardens, vertical forests on buildings, and parks designed to promote biodiversity. Smart technology ensures energy efficiency, with homes powered by renewable sources and waste managed through circular economy principles. Work-life balance has significantly improved, with remote and hybrid work models allowing people to live in smaller, sustainable communities rather than being forced into overcrowded urban centers. Education is more accessible, personalized, and lifelong, adapting to individual needs and technological advancements. Socially, inclusivity is at the heart of communities. Policies ensure equal opportunities for everyone, regardless of background, and mental health is given as much importance as physical health. Automation and AI handle repetitive tasks, freeing people to focus on creative, meaningful work. This future is not just a dream but a possibility—one that requires cooperation, forward-thinking policies, and active participation from all of us. By embracing innovation while staying connected to human values, we can create a Europe that is sustainable, inclusive, and thriving for generations to come.

If I could imagine a future for 2040 with more focus on technology, I would like to see a world where advanced technology has improved people's lives in ways we cannot imagine today. It's not just about faster computers or more powerful AI, but a future where technology is fully integrated into every aspect of our lives in a way that makes us more efficient, creative and connected than ever before. In this future, artificial intelligence and machine learning would be common tools in everyday life. AI would be so integrated that we barely notice it anymore. It would help us make better decisions, automate boring and repetitive tasks, and even adapt to our individual needs, making life more efficient and enjoyable. For example, AI systems could help improve human health by predicting diseases before they occur or by optimizing our exercise programs based on our biology and lifestyle. The world would also be full of connected, intelligent devices - from cars that drive themselves and communicate with each other to avoid traffic and accidents, to homes that are fully automated and adapt to our routines. Smart cities would have infrastructure that adapts to the needs of the population in real time, such as traffic flows, energy efficiency and safety. Healthcare would also undergo a revolution, with advanced technologies such as nanotechnology and gene editing not only treating diseases but also preventing them. Diagnosis and treatment would be more precise than ever, with surgical robots working with high precision and wearable devices continuously monitoring our health. People could live longer and with a better quality of life. Education and work would be radically transformed by virtual and augmented reality. We would have access to virtual classrooms or workplaces that allow us to collaborate and learn no matter where we are in the world. This would create new opportunities for both global collaboration and individual development, where we can access the best education and work opportunities without being limited by geographical barriers. And finally, the human experience would also be transformed by technology. Using virtual worlds and brain-computer interfaces, we could experience new types of interactions and experiences, such as traveling to other planets or engaging in fully immersive, virtual experiences that feel as real as the world around us. Technology would not only change what we do, but also how we experience the world and our existence. This future is not about just living with technology, but about becoming more human and creative by using technology as an extension of our own abilities. Technology would be a tool to maximize our potential and create a more dynamic and connected world.

Sustainable climate change
In 2040, climate change is no no longer the biggest issue humanity is facing. Waste is sorted and recycled by the same rules in every European country and is no longer just burned, dumped to a landfill or sent over to third world countries. People, including companies, know there are limited resources, value them and use them in a sustainable way. Food is no longer wasted in stores, items with best before etc. dates are not considered trash but still a valuable product that people in true need can have access to. Also fabrics can be recycled or repurposed.
