Necessities shouldn’t be a luxury

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

The future I imagine is one where financial stability is a reality for everyone, especially when it comes to basic necessities. In 2040, I hope no one has to worry about affording essential items like hygiene products, food, or healthcare. Today, even the most basic needs—like tampons and other personal care products—are becoming increasingly expensive, making everyday life harder for many people.

In the future, I want to see a world where these necessities are affordable or even freely accessible, just like education or public healthcare. Governments and businesses should prioritize fair wages, stable economies, and policies that ensure that no one has to choose between their well-being and their financial security.

retour à la souveraineté des Etats
that the European Union's powers be reduced in favor of the national states that make it up; that Europe (particularly France) become once again a confederation of states in which the member states cooperate but retain their full sovereignty; that the Commission disappear and that the governance of the EU take the form of regular meetings of the Prime Ministers of the member states + possibly a few Ministers concerned by the subjects under discussion. That the so-called "European Justice" disappears, and that the law applicable in member states depends solely on national parliaments, to the exclusion of any intervention by supranational bodies.
