Family first

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

In 2040 I will have a 19, a 24 and 26 year old. I hope that we are able to stay close as a family. We would be able to live in close proximity with each other so I can help my children start their own lives. House prices are more reasonable so they don't have to move far away. I can see them often, child mind my grandchildren and travel with them. I don't want my children to be swamped with debt from huge mortgages, I want them to be able to continue their careers after having children and not have to give up work because of lack of affordable childcare. I us to able to travel together both locally and on ferry to France and UK without it being cheaper to get a flight to Spain for a week than stay locally for a weekend. I want our local government to put people first, building communities instead of just houses. I want my children not to have to worry about going to the doctors because it's too expensive or where will their children go to school because there isn't enough spaces for the amount of houses built. I want my children to be happy and to be able to make memories with them. I want my future to be family!

Bättre med EU
The EU has expanded by a few more member countries compared to now. These include Moldova, Georgia and Ukraine. Through decisive joint action by the EU countries, Russia has given up its imperialist ambitions, the members of the old fascist regime have been convicted of their atrocities and the country has embarked on a journey towards democracy, and several free elections with real opportunities for the people of Russia to choose between different political orientations have been held. Xenophobia has disappeared and the former far-right parties attract so few voters that they are not represented in any parliament. There are now safe asylum routes into the EU and, while not all refugees are allowed to stay, they are seen as potential resources rather than likely problems. Politicians of different parties have started to listen to science again and, while not all is well, our carbon footprint has been reduced and global warming has started to slow down. Working together in the EU was a major contributing factor.

As technology improves, people's safety and health will also improve dramatically, resulting in longer life expectancy and better performance from people who are active. Digital currencies are taking over the role of money, making it much easier to make payments by implanting a chip. Communication is also done by means of a chip with an image projected in front of our eyes.

Ekologia bez Zielonego Ładu
I would like Europe to withdraw from the Green Deal. For countries to be able to decide their own eco-future. I would like plastic bottles to disappear from stores. So that everyone could afford green heating and an electric car. I would like Europe to eliminate social inequality, send migrants home. It would turn off platforms like Temu , Alliexpress and Shein.

Future Earth wirhout wars
Our future will be in peace and people socializing more. It will be easier to travel and meet new people. Travel with flying cars and enjoying the sea from a huge platform with a dj on the sea. All sports will be free. People will work only servicing other people. Almost everything will be free. Like cars, traveling and people ideas from internet. We will talk in one universal language. Guns will be forbidden.
