What a relief we have left behind in the 1920s with all that succession of intertwined crises that seemed impossible to resolve! What a relief that we no longer have to think about whether democracy is in danger or live in the permanent uncertainty of whether there will be a reactionary retreat from everything that cost us so much to win!

Just as we were finally aware of the physical limits of the planet and the doughnut economy succeeded capitalism, we were also aware of the limits of our democracies with mass debates that prevented (at last!) cruel authoritarian demagogues who did not believe in the values of democracy from seizing power again. I don't know how we could live with this permanent anguish... . No more gerontocracies, no more idycracies, no more techno-auritarism, no more perpetuation in power. AI is no longer a private business of billionaires who (finally!) were forced to distribute 90% of their fortune, as had already happened in the 50s of the last century. It has put itself only at the service of solving the great problems of the world. What a relief too that money no longer moves the world!

All this was possible because the Constitution of the Land of Ferrajoli was approved and launched in 2030, the Magna Carta that protected all our global problems. The nature of which we are a part and without which we cannot live is especially protected. The Constitution provides a framework for everything to be solved diplomatically. Since its approval, the wars have ended and the genocidal people of the past have been severely judged. Yesterday we celebrated the feast of #Nevermore.

If I have to describe what life is like now, the word that comes out is calm. Without constant threats to our safety and well-being, day-to-day life is placid.

valoisa tulvaisuus
I would like the future to be happy and secure, instead of gloomy as it seems to be now. In the future, AI would do the boring and dangerous jobs and leave the art to competent, knowledgeable people. A future where more emphasis would be placed on people's mental well-being rather than driving them into a constant spiral of fatigue and depression. The working hours should be shorter than the basic 8 hours so there would be enough work for more people and the wages should be raised to a level where the rent can be paid with those hours. This would leave more time for hobbies and future development.

Green cities
You could really see the changes now, she thought as she walked down the street. After over ten years with self driving EVs and robotaxis, the cities had changed so much. Parking lots, no longer needed, were replaced by parks with trees, flowers, bees and birds. The air was filled with scents, you never could sense before when the air was filled with exhaustion fumes. Even though some fossil fuel vehicles remained, they were not allowed within cities any longer. And the previous traffic noises were replaced by the sound of laughter from children playing, the ripple of water, birds singing and some buskers playing in the distance. Everywhere you could see buildings with solar panels and for the last ten years, all windows worked like solar panels too. Combined with batteries, it provided cities with a stable electricity supply, even when extreme weather hit.

Politik der Mitte
Left-wing parties were banned after the 2025 election disaster and democratic, center-right politics now prevail. The economy is booming, taxes have been lowered, those who don't want to work have to see how they can manage themselves, support from the state is only available in the event of incapacity to work through no fault of one's own (illness, etc.). More emphasis was placed on education, infrastructure and digitalization, and the path has proven to be the right one. You can live well on your salary and in principle don't have to do without anything. Refugees were no longer accepted and all unauthorized persons were deported, which has greatly reduced the crime rate. People can move around safely in public again.

My future should be uneventful, peaceful and interesting. I want health care to be improved so that everyone has the opportunity for health care. That medicines of every kind are available. That every hospital has all the necessary facilities, that those facilities are new and functional...
