In 2040, Europe will be led by elected Commissioners and the President of the Commission will be elected by referendum in all EU countries. The World Economic Forum and the Bilderberg Group are listed as terrorist organisations. All corruption has been rooted out and lobbying politicians has been made illegal. Anyone who wants to have a political influence is given an election budget by the states and the EU and no other money can be used for advertising and marketing in elections. All citizens have all the freedoms that can exist without hindering the equal freedoms of others. Freedom of speech is absolute. The size of government and the public sector is limited by law to 7% of Europe's population. And taxes are paid only by those who own a lot and earn money above the average. The laws are there to protect the weak and ISLAM is banned because of its criminal nature.

I would like my grandchildren to be able to buy an affordable home by then. I think most houses will be heat pump heated. There will be almost everything digital. I still hope there will still be physical stores. I also hope that physical contacts will remain because otherwise it will be lonely. There will be a lot of electric or hybrid cars. Everything very sustainable. Good health care affordable for everyone.

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.

The world of teaching without the presence of grades and measurements anymore where harmony among people is the first thing to be learned. Subjects will be multidisciplinary and chosen by the student together with educators in harmony with their passions without necessarily resulting in a job. Work will no longer be necessary because there will no longer be poverty, but meritocracy will be relegated to the last place and will privilege civic actions. The solution of medical problems and developments of sociological and practical issues to resolve contrasts between peoples will be especially rewarded. Weapons will no longer be necessary. Everything will be developed for green energy from sun wind and hydrogen. Slowly national borders will be unraveled and we will all just live on earth.
