Es könnte so schön sein

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040, society lives with little inequality. Wealth is taxed fairly, which means that a lot has been invested in social justice. Everyone has the opportunity to have a good standard of living through their work. People only work three days a week and can spend their free time on creativity and social engagement. There is complete equality between men and women. Women don't have to be afraid to walk the streets at night. global warming has been slowed down Companies work, not profit-oriented, but always with the highest social and ecological focus. There are no more borders and no one on earth has to go hungry. There is no discrimination against people however they identify themselves or whatever group they belong to. Fundamental rights are respected everywhere. There are no wars, women can decide on their own reproduction. Everyone gets an education and is trained in what is important for the coexistence of all people and animals on earth, there is a sense of decency about resources not being withheld by one group and other groups being exploited. Because a lot of money has been invested in research and international networking, there are hardly any more diseases that kill people and everyone has access to the healthcare system

Un avenir inclusif et solidaire
In 2040, I'd like to see a world where education is truly inclusive and values all pathways, especially vocational education. A system where every student finds his or her place and develops his or her talents, with no hierarchy between streams. Inequalities in access to culture and healthcare would be reduced thanks to ambitious policies. Preventive health care would be a priority, with fair treatment for all. Finally, society would be more ecological, with responsible consumer choices and technological advances serving the common good. A fairer, more united and more respectful world.

All together in peace
There is an artificial protective shell in the atmosphere, high above the earth. This protects living creatures from harmful conditions and keeps the climate at a constant 22 degrees Celsius. Movement is ensured by magnetic levitation trains and vehicles. Cars and motorcycles no longer exist. Everywhere there are vertical gardens that feed people. Farm animals no longer exist either. Most people work in research or in the gardens. All payment transactions are digital. People live in communities that correspond to their interests, i.e. family communities, sports communities, and a lot of value is placed on social interaction. I imagine a peaceful world without wars and without class differences. What counts is us, togetherness and life.

Bessere Welt
I hope that there will be no more wars and that all people can live together in peace. I wish for the environment to be better protected and for there to be no more pollution. I wish for animal welfare so that endangered species do not become extinct.

Sicherheit durch Überwachung
The personal security of every individual, be it physical or property security, is very important to me. That is why I would curtail the rights of every individual citizen and create a comprehensive database in which DNA and an encrypted numerical code would be stored immediately after birth. In the event of a crime, this database could be used to determine who was at the scene of the crime on the basis of items found (hair, blood.....). Even if data protectionists would be up in arms about it, such an anonymous and encrypted database would certainly be a major deterrent for potential criminals. For me personally, even a chip that everyone gets implanted would be a conceivable way of determining who was at the scene of the crime at the time. DNA samples can still be used to deny the time of the crime. Many, many crimes such as murder, assaults, burglaries and hit-and-runs could easily be solved. On the other hand, it can also be used to prove that a suspect is not guilty and convictions based on false "witness statements" or accusations could be refuted very easily. I am not a friend of surveillance, but if it serves security and is encrypted, then I am all for it.
