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.

mi auguro un futuro
I guess, or rather, I hope for a better future. A little bit in every sense, perhaps the thing I'd like to see most would be a little more humanity and less selfishness and nastiness in people. I would like young people to be able to live even for just as I lived at their age, not out of revenge, on the contrary, because they understand the value and values of life, of healthy and clean fun and the ability to get the things they want without the contribution of violence. I would be happy to see the relationship children parents cleaner, I would no longer hear all those horrendous stories that unfortunately you hear every day. It's true...I want to, but I don't really expect it to be like this.

Una España sin sectarismo
They say that the Spain of the previous two decades was a dark time, where authoritarianism and ideological fanaticism had been imposed on citizens. The socialist party, led by Fedro Pánchez, took over all the institutions, infiltrating its followers in them to impose its government of terror, where dissent was not tolerated and anyone who disagrees was singled out and persecuted. Until he tried to do the same with the judges and they rebelled, investigating and prosecuting members of the government and his party for theft of public funds, prevarication and other crimes. Including the infamous Fedro.After a fierce media crusade, all were convicted and imprisoned, except Fedro and his wife Ledoña, who fled to the Dominican Republic. No more was known about them, but Spain again achieved the balance of ideological plurality, tolerance and alternation in government.

Harmonie
I imagine a stronger Europe to protect borders (preparing for war was avoided) but also nature , biodiversity and our landscapes .simplify to succeed in improving bureaucracy and putting our officials on the ground to better understand the needs of the population. protect our agriculture by giving priority to small farms if possible in organic.continue innovation in all areas and regain our independence from China and other countries ,develop renewable energies while keeping nuclear power.

MEDIOEVO TECNOLOGICO
By now it was late and we had to take refuge in the caves quickly before the enemies could attack us. It was the only chance. In the caves we would have been safe, the enemy's electronic systems could not overcome the barrier of our defense systems. Electronic also these, but much more powerful as long as used within that space. By now the planet was divided into only two peoples: those outside, technologically more backward, who used GPS and drones but who otherwise were dressed and housed like our ancestors of the last century, and searched for us with automatic and armored weapons; and us inside, covered with skins and rags, but assisted by the power of Artificial Intelligence. We ate worms and roots, we looked like Neanderthals, but we handled the most sophisticated instruments without the slightest difficulty (or perhaps it is better to say that they handled us). In short, the world was divided between hypertechnological primitives and evolved but not very technological humans. The big question that we always asked ourselves, and that maybe even those who read these few lines could ask themselves, is who would have prevailed. It would have been better if human evolution and technological progress had gone together. But - as has all too often happened in human history - something had gone wrong.
