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!

People in 2027 started getting chipped, everything was already technologically developed. In 2030, cars started flying, so people didn't have to wait in queues, everything was faster. We started growing crickets for food, there are different farms. In 2040, scientists developed the dinosaur gene, so they started appearing and breeding them as pets.

Frieden und in Ruhe und Harmonie leben
Above all, I want to live in peace, that people understand each other and that it's not always about profit. That people have what they need to live. Healthy food and animals that are no longer tortured. We already have a lot of technical aids, which is great progress in this day and age, but AI must not get out of hand. People should show consideration for others.

Gemeinsam das Land verändern
A lot has changed in the past 20 years. After the government finally started to be there for its citizens and the country, things started to pick up again. The economy has recovered. We now produce almost everything in our own country. We import less food because we use our land to produce food. Fruit and vegetables are now only available when they are in season. Many people use solar to power their homes. There are many more electric cars on the roads. Cyclists and motorists are equal road users. The penalties for misbehavior on the road also apply to cyclists. There is no two-tier society in the healthcare system. You get an appointment promptly, regardless of which doctor you see. Medicines are always available because they are produced in the country. Education is being taken seriously again. There are enough schools and trained teachers who take care of children's education.
