Podróże w czasie

In 2040, the world looked very different than it did twenty years ago. Poland has become a peaceful, safe and united country around common values. The streets were clean, the cities well organized, and people lived in harmony, valuing their traditions and culture.

There was an atmosphere of tranquility in the towns, with children playing in the backyards without fear, the elderly walking in the parks, and the neighbours knowing each other and helping each other in their daily lives. Local communities thrived and small family businesses thrived, supported by modern technologies and a conscious approach to the economy.

There were no problems with crime or riots. The authorities have made sure that the country develops in a sustainable and safe way. Young people had good prospects – they could educate themselves at a high level, develop their passions and be sure that they would find a decent job.

Thanks to a wise economic policy, Poland became self-sufficient – agriculture flourished, domestic companies produced modern technologies, and people enjoyed stability and prosperity. Society was united, proud of its history and ready to build the future in accordance with its own values.

In the evening, sitting on the terrace of his house, John looked at the quiet streets and felt gratitude. He knew that his children were growing up in a world where they could feel safe, respect their roots and build a better future for generations to come.

Sicherheit durch Überwachung
The personal security of every individual, be it physical or property security, is very important to me. That is why I would curtail the rights of every individual citizen and create a comprehensive database in which DNA and an encrypted numerical code would be stored immediately after birth. In the event of a crime, this database could be used to determine who was at the scene of the crime on the basis of items found (hair, blood.....). Even if data protectionists would be up in arms about it, such an anonymous and encrypted database would certainly be a major deterrent for potential criminals. For me personally, even a chip that everyone gets implanted would be a conceivable way of determining who was at the scene of the crime at the time. DNA samples can still be used to deny the time of the crime. Many, many crimes such as murder, assaults, burglaries and hit-and-runs could easily be solved. On the other hand, it can also be used to prove that a suspect is not guilty and convictions based on false "witness statements" or accusations could be refuted very easily. I am not a friend of surveillance, but if it serves security and is encrypted, then I am all for it.

There is no war in Europe. To this end, governments, with the support of the people, have taken the necessary decisions to ensure security and punish aggressors. These decisions have been enforced. On crucial issues for the EU, it is not consensus that is needed, but the support of a majority of member states. The cultures and customs of indigenous peoples are respected. These are legally protected and enforced. Along with security, family and children are recognised as areas of national importance. All national decisions are taken in the light of their impact on security and families, and subsequently on the wider economy and environment. Reducing regulations and state subsidies in the economy. We are moving towards a situation in which regulation must be justified only by exceptional need, and public subsidies are only available in the social sphere (emergency aid, welfare, etc.), education and culture. No tax will be levied on donations and activities that are voluntary. Europe has taken the initiative to develop a new organisation to replace the UN, bringing together the countries of the world and working on a predominantly voluntary basis. This organisation will also have its own enforcement mechanism. The nations of Europe will lead by example, first and foremost through their actions; the time for talk is over.

Futur meilleur
Inevitably, the world is going to change, thanks to technological advances. I think, or at least I hope, that we'll be living on a less polluted planet. That humans will have more respect for the environment, that we'll have access to healthcare for everyone. Less delinquency and more respect for the elderly. That everyone can have a minimum of comfort.

Health is the most important thing for a person to stay alive. Timely access to medical care is very poor today. I am very hopeful of advances in technology that will give people the possibility of timely diagnosis and treatment of illness by an artificial arm. After all, the situation today is that a doctor prescribes a diagnosis and medication to a patient based on the symptoms described by the patient over the phone or in an e-health centre without seeing the person. The development of a self-driving car service would provide people with better mobility, regardless of where they live, their age or their state of health.
