Worse for most, good for few

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

As world hasn't gotten into an agreement about changes regarding the climate change the world has gotten much warmer. Population has either started shrinking in areas that are no longer easily habitable or started moving towards better areas which are now getting crowded.
This of course affects health and wellbeing of the population.
Technology/science rushes forwards with the possibility to live off planet sooner rather than later it seems that the option is only for the most wealthy. It is true that technological breakthroughs could also make lives easier and better but at what cost? There are always those who'd profit which in turn makes benefiting from said progress expensive for everyone. Working definitely might change with automatic/remote controlled robots or such. But still the lower classes would'nt have that luxory.

Notes about the quiestionaire. The given/estimated 5 minutes is nowhere near enough time to collect thoughts/visions about possible future. Also there was no option to decline after clicking the link in email as there usually is.

Den gamle kones fremtidsønsker
In 2040, I will be 98 years old. I hope that I'm still alive and that my current ailments have not worsened. If I have deteriorated and moved into a nursing home, I hope there are still staff to meet my needs and wishes. I hope my children, children-in-law, grandchildren and great-grandchildren? will come and visit me. Most of all, I hope that there is more peace in the world and that the climate is under control so that future generations can grow up in security.

Ein besseres Leben träumen
I can choose the provider of my statutory social insurance myself. It's the same one I have my car insurance with. It is inexpensive and tailored to my needs. Tomorrow I am invited to vote with politicians in a select group on an important issue for our Austria. It's called Polit Schöffe. I get to vote and have a direct say in what happens in our country. At last there is social justice. If you work hard, you can earn a lot without being punished. What I have earned belongs to me. Multiple taxation was abolished last year, men now earn so much that women can afford the luxury of staying at home with their children. This time also counts towards their pension.

In the future, I don't need to drive a car, but the car goes wherever I want. It is controlled by phone and you rent it by the day or hour through a company. In schools there is no longer violence, but everyone takes care of each other. Respect for everyone has become a reality and everyone takes care of each other. Money is also no longer available, but everything is paid via an APP on the phone. Shops have decreased in number, but most often you order the goods home now. Politicians are taking more time to listen to each other instead of smearing each other.
