Times gone by

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Here we are in 2040 I am now 83 years young and glad to be here the changes I have seen since times gone by are unleavable and let me explain some of them to you now. The government we now have work for the people and not themselves the wages now meet the cost of living needs, the fuel of petrol and diesel are now like gold dust to buy but the cars that run on these fuels now are nearly extinct and cost more than our EVs to buy now. Cleaner environment for us all to live in. The housing market is better now more houses are being built and at affordable costs not much poverty about at these times and we should thank god for that. Now some of the downfalls of this era are computers they control everything now we shop online now no more going to the supermarket the times of our local pubs are gone we are controlled by robots and AI this for me is hard to take I miss some of the old times open fires snow fall good summers and lots more are our times changing for better our worse YOU TELL ME.

Vision Europa 2040
In a Europe of 2040, we will be in a united community with a central government. The political parties will each have joined together to form a European party, and the parliament will be led by the Volt Party. The electrical energy required for industry, households and transportation will come from renewable sources. Electric cars will be charged inductively in a few seconds at special points.

Retour aux fondements de l'Europe
Europe has been overwhelmed by mass immigration, bombings, xenophobia and the muzzling of free speech. The new generation of Europeans woke up as they did when they were under Ottoman, Nazi or Soviet domination. Thanks to the new generation, by 2040 we had a majority of libertarian voters. In just 10 years, Europe has become dynamic again, protecting its borders from Wokist and Muslim obscurantism in particular, but welcoming anyone who wants to work towards the freedom of peoples' choices and ideas. The politicians who had distanced us from Europe's origins have been judged, but forgiven for their reconciliation. In 2050, Europe will once again be a land of peace, free enterprise, the ability to express one's ideas, and a forerunner in new technologies beyond generative AI. Indeed, all the multitudes spent on clentelism have been redirected

Der Mensch trägt die Verantwortung
I would like people to respect themselves more, to be less focused on profit and more on charity, to use their abilities to help people who have less money to make something of their lives. I would like people to value themselves more, then they would buy fewer unhealthy products and respect their health and the health of others more, which would also benefit the environment. They would eat more healthily and have more respect for creation, and therefore for themselves, because they are part of creation. An individual person who really changes by learning to really value themselves also changes their whole lifestyle, which creates a chain to the environment. This also makes the country/nation healthier. Change starts with every single person and only that can really change the world, the nation for the better and that is my vision for 2040.

Un avenir entouré d'amour et de respect
In 2025, families have drifted apart. So things have to change. Our house has 2 parts: one for our couple, one for the children and grandchildren. In the middle, the common room where we can see each other if we need or want to. A fireplace, armchairs and a sofa, a piano and other musical instruments for playing together. A TV to share after voting on which program to watch together. A kitchen and dining room table where we can dine together whenever we like. A large garden with lots of games for the little ones. A swimming pool. A quieter corner for the adults too, with games and reading. The key word: family communication.
