The non-administration: how digital everything finally got rid of paper and admin

This image was generated with Dream Studio AI.

Life in 2040 is super digital, and all the public services are as simple as using Uber in 2021.

In fact, the system is so supportive that anyone can immediately receive its social benefits, get a certificate and file taxes in a click.
Since everything is interconnected digitally and we pay with digital payment means, professions such as notary, accountant and most administrative tasks disappeared because they are now irrelevant.

Any sort of paper trail, back and forth of documents and admin process is made a thing of the past.

Public services are becoming as good as private ones since they now use the same philosophy. They fire civil servants who do not perform, understand their user's needs, and make sure that they deliver a top of line functioning service.

People have started to accept that administrations are actually there to help them live a better life, and they don't feel anymore like kids in front of a teacher. This brings calm and orders to society since no one can complain anymore about being left out.

Society starts to transition from a notion of elite leaders to meritocratic leaders. We hire the President like we do a CEO. If he does perform, he is pushed out.

Thanks to big data and analysis, we can measure the degree of confidence and foresight between the declarations of public figures and how accurate they were. The ones who consistently miss the mark and whose predictions are wrong - disappear from public life. The same happens for newspapers and journalists who do not make accurate predictions or whose opinions are not matching reality. They end up working for fiction newspapers and are barred from accessing any "non-fiction" news outlets.

The most important thing in the world is and will be our education. The world is now growing locked in. You need to go through, study, find a job in the public sector, you need to do a family. Why the wheel has to turn as the few. The world in the future should be free without any bias. Not be tied to work. There must be time for the family and the family must not wait every month. These social inequalities that cause superiority syndromes can no longer exist. Prosperity and immunity can no longer be advertised by all media. In 2040, let us live in a real world where children have a real education and live in a free world that makes it as they want rather than as it is what they want to do, and not as much value for people, rather than money. A world that has long been trying to build but always do the opposite and bring the worst.

I will envisage a (utopian) future in which social and gender inequalities have been eliminated or even reduced, and environmental protection will be of paramount value. Where access to basic goods (health, food, housing, education) will be provided regardless of social class, gender race and other characteristics. A world where prosperity is promoted and not based on the enforcement of violence. A world where we respect the rights of others, animals and the environment.
