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!

I open my window and give the command to my smartphone. And it does! The city stretches out before me. Not a sound... Birds sing. The trees gently move their leaves in the light breeze. I remember, in 2025, only asphalt lay before my eyes. Noisy, smelly cars drove everywhere. Now it's 7am to 10am and 5pm to 8pm. And not at weekends! It's a pleasure... Nature is back in its place. The world has turned green. Under the impetus of ecology, political leaders have become more aware. Well... Under the populist impulse, they didn't find their place, the abstention rate at the various votes was such that no elected official dared declare himself the winner. Moreover, the World is run by popular colleges representing the population and appointed for short, non-renewable periods. The result is greater peace of mind. No more supremacy, no more dictatorship. A gentler vision. More respectful of human beings and nature. No more conflict. The land has been redistributed. The world is divided up intelligently. Ukrainians and Russians live side by side, Palestinians and Israelis are neighbors.

Frieden, aber wann?????
Kharkiv in 2040, the Russian self-sufficient Putin is finally gone. A assassin has caught him ,, despite the strict guarding, has finally succeeded in eliminating the warmonger. Now this can be implemented on a large scale as a reconstruction of Ukraine. Just as the reconstruction in the Russian Empire can be continued. Together is the word forward. And Syria and Gaza are finally at the end of the violent actions under the constant cries of war. But there are still other hotspots at the moment. Luckily, even yesterday's in the US realized that a Trump was not a win for the country. It is already good that the Indigenius push themselves more and more forward, because life in the states existed long before the violence of arms came over there in 1492. It is slowly time for the world, the people in the states named as the powerful, to determine the politics that still know the words humanity and life.

2040
By 2040, I would like the world to be a much more sustainable and connected place. I choose the theme of environment and technology because I believe that this is the key to a better future. In this ideal future, humanity would live much more in harmony with nature, using advanced technologies that both protect the environment and improve the quality of life.

The year is 2040. Finland's independence has returned from 2025, when a huge number of citizens from different countries lived in our country. Now these immigrants have been registered and removed from our country. Crime and rape have fallen dramatically. At the same time, there has been a reduction in the use of narcotics and the smell of cannabis is no longer on every street corner. There are no more child marriages. No one can marry until they are of age and no one forces girls into forced marriages; every woman has the right to choose her own spouse of her own free will. A cure has been found for homosexuality. It is very effective. No longer are rainbow flags flown, but this disease has been overcome by vaccinating newborn babies at an early age and preventing chromosomal abnormalities. All in all, we live in a very pleasant society. The Loiselites are bowing down to Mecca, far from a welfare society. The role of women in an egalitarian society has a very positive reputation even beyond our borders. The Green Party is only a memory. Is that partly due to the vaccination campaign to cure homosexuality?
