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 hope that in the next years there will be not only hate on the Internet what is now, children will kill themselves by hate I hope that it will change and it will be like it used to be. There were more transports. So people can find jobs.

Pros y contras de la evolución tecnológica
The future is focused on technology, even more so than today. Autonomous and even flying cars, mobile incorporated into the body, as an extension of this, with innovative materials such as the graphic, durable and flexible. On the other hand, human contact is lost, interactions are becoming more difficult, and people have become a bit of a hurrah.

Human future
I would like that future to be more about human beings and their wellbeing than about algorithms and corporate profit. We would be able to lives our lives to the fullest without having to worry all the time and without feeling the need to take advantage of each other in a system of misguided incentive structures. Ideally, we would also be more in tune with nature, as opposed to constantly damaging it.

Mein Ausblick auf die Zukunft
In Europe 2050, I see the economic collapse of the EU and the impoverishment of people in all states. There are few children and jobs left and pensioners can't live off your pension either. However, there is hope for more nation states and less EU to create a small economic union at the same time. The countries have their own currencies again, which makes consideration of their competitiveness so that the individual can decide more. Bureaucracy and laws were partly abolished in order to increase productivity and build prosperity.
