I wish it was like it used to be, but unfortunately, I don't believe that times will return to what they were 25 years ago. In 2040, I see a world of speeding people caught up in phones without which they can't do any of the smallest things. On the other hand, I see people fighting for each day. The rich versus the very poor. Clogged with responsibilities, worried about all the duties they will be saddled with not so much by virtue of living and running a home o but imposed by the state. Taxes slicing our income for more and more reasons. Tired and overworked people trying to pay for everything that comes their way. Wanting them to have some pleasure left over. Constantly worrying about adjusting even their homes to meet the requirements placed on them, struggling for.any help with what is imposed on us from above. Overworked-forced to supplements ania more and more vitamins, because those consumed in food are not enough to replenish the supply when working so hard. And nature-more and more disappearing from our sight. Resources used to the maximum. Places of former exploitation left behind, destroyed, neglected.
