Ikuinen kesäaika

Then it is eternal summer, the only real permanent time in Finland, daylight saving time. Already 15 years ago, in 2025, Finland has dared to break free from the yoke of the EU and make an independent decision to improve people's wellbeing and move away from dark clocks to darkness. Summer holidays have been extended. Saturdays will not be deducted from the holidays, but the summer holidays for all citizens will be 6 weeks, in addition to a week's Christmas holiday, a week's winter holiday and a week's autumn holiday. The whole world has joined in solidarity to install emission filters in the chimneys of Chinese factories and the sky is blue there too. Santa Claus's home country is officially recognised as the Aurora Borealis. All Finns work part-time, 4-6 hours a day, 4 days a week, and all receive a guaranteed wage of EUR 4500 from the state, regardless of their sector. Immigration is forbidden, travel is allowed. Climate change has stopped. Information systems have crashed and the internet is a memory. We are back to recycled paper, old, ridiculous telephones and all schoolchildren have access to paper textbooks and exercise books paid for by the state, in which they can make notes. School days are a maximum of 6 hours and there is no homework. Each child is given one free hobby at birth, which can be claimed at any time under the age of 18. The world's wealth is shared equally by all. There are no rich families, no birthright, no politics, no stock markets, but a time of peace, prosperity and harmony. The Kela rehabilitation psychotherapy system is there just in case. The welfare zones have been abolished at the same time as the switch to summer time. Finland has expanded and regained its old borders, the beloved Karelia. In their free time people read books. They paint. They chat. Making love. They make handicrafts. Get enough sleep. Concentrate undistracted when their smart devices aren't beeping. NATO has destroyed Russia and Arabia. Dubai and Musk's fortunes have been distributed to the poor all over the world. Tampere has cancelled its water-filling projects and there is enough groundwater for everyone. The state has abolished the electricity exchange and paid for battery-operated solar panels for everyone. Gardens and swings on the roofs of apartment blocks. Animals and nature are treated with respect.

Nur geträumt
Humanity has come to its senses. We now have enough agriculture in Germany again and can feed ourselves, are independent and free. Asparagus is only available in asparagus season and strawberries only in summer. And tomatoes taste like tomatoes again. We get them directly from the farmer in the farm store or in small corner stores where we like to stop for a chat with the neighbors. Where there used to be huge supermarkets, there are now large playgrounds for our little ones, free-range enclosures for man's best friends and hospitals. We have leveled and renaturalized many highways or converted them into local recreation areas. We are currently in the process of dismantling residential silos with more than five storeys and creating new living space. This will keep us busy for some time yet, after which we will turn off the alarm clock and wake up from our dream.

The EU collapsed. NATO ceased to exist. The trial of liberal leaders who had destroyed the EU economy
The EU collapsed, with only a few Old World countries remaining. NATO ceased to exist. Parties concerned about national security and the self-identity of their countries came to power. The trial of liberal leaders who had destroyed the EU economy to please transnational corporations took place. Many Eastern European countries found the strength to recognize the sanctions against the Russian Federation as destructive for them. And so they made peace with Russia, and many even sent requests to join the Eurasian Union. After the trial of liberal politicians of the 1920s, Germany began to recover economically. The Nord Stream gas pipelines were restored. Under the leadership of Germany and France, the creation of the European Armed Forces began. The construction of the New Silk Road was completed. Some countries returned to the idea of

Meine Zukunft
People in government must prove that they have a basic knowledge of their position and are not appointed according to party affiliation. Laws that are passed must also be applied and not become ineffective with thousands of exceptions. As far as transport is concerned, it would be good if there were still a certain individual share, but for the most part via a well-developed public network that also takes into account all so-called marginalized groups (the elderly, the disabled, the financially disadvantaged).

Dette vil næppe være min fremtid, men ...
For anything to get better, we have to start small. That means everything starts with yourself, with taking responsibility for your life, living a decent, responsible and considerate life in all respects. If this happens, it will also mean that the people elected to political responsibility will be able to fulfill their duties for the benefit of all people and all aspects of society. And there is nowhere, in my opinion, where change and improvement is more needed than in this area if democracy is to survive
