Life in 2040 is unimaginably different to what I remember it being like 20 years ago! When I wake up every morning, my mechanical assistant delivers my breakfast and vitamins to my bedside locker, while informing me of today's news headlines. The robot declares in a monotone voice: 'Fatal accident occurred in the early hours of the morning when assistant driving machine malfunctions while driving a family at night, with no survivors. Man given a fine of €500 for using slur in social media groupnchat, that was detected by the well-acredited AI anti-hate software that was introduced by our Government nearly 5 years ago.' I sit up, staring at the wall in front of me, and then back at my wee robot. Both headlines moved me, even more so due to their succession of one another. These vessels of human perception and knowledge can be fantastical yet ominous. My mind will never be made up on whether these machines are "good" or "bad", because there simply isnt good or bad, which we learned long ago from our own species. Also, I don't want to get a fine.

let's hope that in 2040, the U€ will no longer exist: it's an anti-people institution that's leading us towards misery and war, and I hope that my country will have already left this dictatorship long before ... as well as 0tan and the other related supra-national institutions (0nu,0M$,tan ..) that have no democratic legitimacy! Long live the liberation of Belgium! 1 Pays avec 1 Seul Gouvernement , le Peuple Souverain → il n' y a pas de démocratie possible sans Souveraineté Nationale !! merci quand même de m' avoir pris pour un Gogol , bon , c' est ok , j' ai à peu près mes 150 mots ☺ !!!

In 2040, all countries should finally understand and accept each other. No more war and in Germany most people should finally agree with each other Everyone should be able to decide for themselves whether they want to drive an electric car or a combustion engine and everyone should also be given the opportunity to drive an electric car and not be charged a price that hardly anyone can afford

The land is technically up to date. Taxes are levied fairly and everyone has almost equal space for themselves and a garden. Religions are banned, eliminating many differences. Thanks to fusion energy, sufficient energy is available everywhere at a very low price. Local and long-distance transportation has been reorganized and rationally planned so that punctual, clean journeys can take place reliably (like Switzerland or Japan now)
