The EU was set up and continues to exist in order to facilitate multi-national corporations to make money. In this respect the interests of 'ordinary' people and big-business do not coincide.
Since the EU was established the gap between rich and poor has increased, wages levels have stagnated, unionised jobs have decreased, job insecurity has increased, ...[text shortened]... er than face up to the fact that the EU and similar policies have failed the majority of people.

I don't think that there is a 'quick-fix'. I guess the first step needs to be a recognition of these issues and the part that schemes such as the EU and Globalisation in general have played in bringing them about. A shift in values away from 'growth' and greed towards a more 'co-operative' approach to society would also be beneficial. I'm afraid that we are a long way from this though!

Thank goodness Britain pulled out of the Euro mechanism. The UK and Denmark are the only ones whose fiscal policy isn't dictated by German puppets in the ECB.

Easy:
1. We are all going to die. Unless accidents happen, the older we are the
closer we are to death.
2. Unschooled means without school. Also understood as lacking schooling
as per the general population.
Any other question?
I am 56 yrs old and I can honestly say I do not, or have not known any person that hadn't been schooled .
According to you there must be quite a few million "unschooled " roaming around the UK .
I suppose you mean schooling as in university schooling ?
If I went to uni and an important vote concerning me and my country arose, I would have got my backside to the polling station .
The schooled have been out schooled by the unschooled.
