Utopia kommt ein Stück näher

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

I would like to see the conflict between economy and ecology overcome by 2040. Companies will no longer have to strive for extreme profit, but will be rewarded for sustainable production. In addition, products produced in this way are subsidized by the state so that almost everyone can buy them. The neo-liberal economic ideas have finally been consigned to the dustbin and no one would think of following the capitalist ideas any more.
In addition, the social systems have been harmonized so that the major gaps have been closed and no one has to work beyond the age of 65. The professional civil service has been abolished and only a few essential professions (police, fire department, judiciary) still have civil servants in the necessary positions. Private health insurance has been abolished and transferred to the statutory system so that all employees pay equally into the social security system and stability is guaranteed.
Parliaments have shrunk to reasonable sizes (Bundestag 301 members, the rest staggered according to population up to a maximum of 49) and the associated bureaucracy has also shrunk. The money could be used for sensible projects to reduce legal regulations, so that digitalization could also be decisively advanced.

A better world
I'd like the future to be more relaxing than the times we live in now. I'd like humanity to be more respectful not only of the environment, but also of people. In 2040, everyone would be environmentally aware. Degrowth would have begun, but with a positive impact on everyone. No more excessive consumption, with everyone consuming what is available in their own country or geographically close environment.

Protopia
The year is 2040. Artificial intelligence which has been properly regulated and implemented so that it actually serves humanity helps us in many aspects of life. However, it is banned in several areas such as art and culture. its participation is allowed but only as a component of a particular work or cultural product. All people receive dividends from what is produced by automation. No one has to work to survive because the money from dividends is sufficient for all basic needs and even more, but most people still work because it gives their lives meaning and increases their social status. However, money is no longer the main driver, it is the status acquired by contributing to society. Humanity has flown to Mars and further plans to conquer space are being implemented. Many new energy sources have been discovered, thanks to which coal is no longer an attractive resource at all. Life expectancy has significantly increased and is being extended by several years every year, so everyone agrees that the prospect of colonizing other planets will become a necessity sooner rather than later.

Be Europos vėžio Rusijos
The Russian state has collapsed and is no longer a threat to Europe. The Russians are paying for the war damage to Ukraine. Leaders have emerged in the EU who represent the EU well and are respected around the world, with a clear voice and significant influence. A unified NATO army is in place to ensure peace and security for all members. Putler is declared a war criminal and dies in prison. Only legal migrants enter the EU, no more terror attacks and no more threat of them. The EU economy is growing, the number of educated people is rising, and climate change is a greater concern.

Leben und nicht überleben
Well-paid work for all, price adjustments for low earners. Forcing the workshy who don't want to work to work, otherwise cutting their income. Reduce electricity, heating and fuel costs, these should remain affordable and not be a luxury. Equal curricula for all federal states with the same learning pace.
