My easy day out in 2040

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I wakeup to a buzzing and nice sounding super phone. It is easy to wake up when there are birds chirping all around you in an easy and pleasant voice. I await the payment of my salary, and today is a special day because it is a 10 th year of when we started using digital euro. It has singnificaly reduced the lag time between transactions and the banks are almost not existent anymore. They were just ripping us off. Because with digital euro, you can earn dividends when puting it away in monthly quarterly or yearly dividend baskets. Last year i saved enough of coins to buy me a brand me mid tier fast and super smart phone. Soon i will be heading to work. It is one of those days where we are encouraged to visit the employers headquarters and attend some meetings there. Last time i was there was last week on friday. The future is bright and we do not need to work so hard anymore, as all the hard work has been replaced by AI robots. Oh and i forgot to mention, with digital euro, we got the standrad minimal income, which means you are guaranteed to get the minimum living expenses payed off by the government. If you work all the money is extra, for all the extra goodies in life. Yes Life Is good. Now if only we could solve the climate change on time, it wouldn't be a nightmare to life in aolmost bunkers of our houses. We had it hard these last years. The nature has gone wild with extreme hurricanes, storms, and heat and cold waves. But I am optimistic because financially we are all insured. Thats was mandated by the government, if insurance companies wanted to stay the same way as before.

DRUGACNOST
I am now living in 2040 and my children are facing a very different world. All lessons are only half an hour. All lessons are done behind computers and strange electronics. The weather has also got better, it very rarely rains and snow falls in abundance during the winter. The climate is controlled by us humans. We have also got medicines for almost everything (cancer, covid). The world has changed completely

Le retour de la sérénité
Given the current geo-political situation, I'd like our world to be at peace, less polluted, and for everyone to be able to live in harmony and on their own terms, for life to be peaceful and for the products needed for everyday life to be accessible to all. I hope that the world of politics and trade unions will at last be serious, balanced, respectful of everyone and listen to them with respect.

Des nouveaux isolants
In 2040, I'd like to see housing and dwellings upgraded to cope with climate change. To do this, we'd have to invent (if we haven't already done so) special exterior insulation that would protect against both heat and cold. Living conditions would really improve, and everyone would be able to live better and cope with extreme temperatures.

De la solidarité sociale à l'intelligence par l'investissement et le travail
The French, our politicians and European partner states are trying to correct the problems they have created by multiplying standards and administrative constraints, allowing distorted competitive trade and uncontrolled immigration. In 2040, competition is free and undistorted, in the sense that our companies are protected from European and international competition. Our Western values are defended tooth and nail. Priority urban neighborhoods no longer exist, because we've broken the all-social business. Local employment is preserved, and the social and political climate is calmer. Society is egalitarian because it is based on investment and work, not social debt.
