Bildung macht den Unterschied

I wake up to a daylight lamp. I get ready for a job. I voluntarily chose the 5-day week when I could choose between a 4-day and a 3-day week. There is a lot of emphasis on freedom. I can choose and it's no problem to work more or less. I'm not doing it for the money, but because I'm still young and understand that my work is important. I became aware of my work, my actions and the contribution I make to society, to myself and to my fellow human beings at school. Expectations of self-efficacy were raised. Educational institutions have moved away from rigid math, German and English lessons. Sure - knowledge is taught, but above all values. Education is what sets us apart from the world in 2025. People of all kinds are accepted and respected. Open values are taught from kindergarten to university. The legal system has become very strict. Over 1000 euros are charged for speeding - I think that's good! This kind of paternalism protects us.
So I go to work for my 8 hours, buy a slice of cake on the way home by public transport - expensive but delicious, I want to treat myself to this luxury - and drink coffee with my little family. Then I go to the gym. The health insurance companies and doctors have understood that sport is very important. I pay my club membership as a donation and my children's gym fees are almost entirely covered by the health insurance.
After dinner, my older son returns from his community service. This is compulsory for everyone after school. Alternatively, you can choose to do a year's military service. There's no money for it, but lots of experience. But the young people don't mind, because they have been brought up and shaped in such a way that knowledge and experience are worth more than money.

Sąmoningi ir saugūs
In the world of the future, people's kindness and cooperation are strengthened. Governments have taken many firm and undeniable decisions about future well-being, not all of which are for the benefit of the people (e.g. tax rises), but society is conscious and, once it is understood, rejoices at , that these decisions make life good, albeit financially more difficult. We are safe!

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.
