Čini mi se da je očit upliv nevidljive ruke Velikog Brata. Postoji teorija da je Nemačka nakon WW2 praktično okupirana od strane Amerike, da su tamo američke baze i da mora da radi šta joj se kaže.
Ja da valjam ne bih bio ovde.

Iskreno, mislim da će biti sve teže i teže živeti u Nemačkoj i da će za recimo 5 godina biti opasno šetati bilo kojim većim nemačkim gradom. A za žene će biti duplo opasno zbog seksualnog nasilja. Tako da me ne bi čudilo da Nemci krenu za recimo desetak godina da se iseljavaju...

Zanimljivo bi bilo otvoriti glavudže tih pripadnika "željeznodobnih" plemena(uzeh izraz od Zoska, svideo mi se) i videti kako oni vide tu Evropu, šta to za njih predstavlja, osim lakog hleba. I prezentovati rezultat na džinovskom displeju. Ne bi se ni tada Evropejci odrekli svog samoubilačkog hedonizma ali valjda bi se malo otreznili, šta ja znam.
Naravno, to ne važi za one kojima bi trebalo otvarati glavudže željeznodobnim sredstvima, bez anestezije.

Europe scrambles to find Tunisian suspect in Berlin attack

Quote
BERLIN (AP) — Authorities across Europe scrambled Thursday to track down a Tunisian man suspected of driving a truck into a Christmas market in Berlin, as one of his brothers urged him to surrender.
Nearly three days after the deadly attack that killed 12 people and injured 48 others, the market in the center of the capital reopened, with concrete blocks in place at the roadside to provide extra security.
Organizers decided to reopen without party music or bright lighting, and Berliners and visitors have laid candles and flowers at the site in tribute.
German authorities issued a wanted notice for Anis Amri on Wednesday and offered a reward of up to 100,000 euros ($104,000) for information leading to the 24-year-old's arrest, warning that he could be "violent and armed."
One of Amri's brothers urged him to turn himself in.
"I ask him to turn himself in to the police. If it is proved that he is involved, we dissociate ourselves from it," brother Abdelkader Amri told The Associated Press.
He said Amri may have been radicalized in prison in Italy, where he went after leaving Tunisia in the wake of the Arab Spring uprisings.
German media reported several locations were searched overnight, including a house in Dortmund and a refugee home in Emmerich on the Dutch border. Federal prosecutors, who are leading the investigation, declined to comment.
The manhunt also prompted police in Denmark to search a Sweden-bound ferry in the port of Grenaa after receiving tips that someone resembling Amri had been spotted. But police said they found nothing indicating his presence.
An Israeli woman, Dalia Elyakim, has been identified as one of the 12 killed when a truck plowed into the market in central Berlin on Monday evening, Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Emmanuel Nahshon said.
German officials had deemed Amri, who arrived in the country last year, a potential threat long before the attack — and even kept him under covert surveillance for six months this year before halting the operation.
They had been trying to deport him after his asylum application was rejected in July but were unable to do so because he lacked valid identity papers and Tunisia initially denied that he was a citizen.
A document belonging to Amri, who according to authorities has used at least six different names and three different nationalities, was found in the cab of the truck.
Family members of Amri, speaking from his hometown of Oueslatia in central Tunisia, were shaken to learn that he was a suspect.
Amri left Tunisia years ago for Europe but had been in regular contact with his brothers via Facebook and phone.

Nije, nažalost bilo pitanje da li već gde će se teroristički napadi dešavati u novogodišnjoj noći. Istanbul, ponovo...


https://uk.news.yahoo.com/armed-attack-istanbul-nightclub-reports-231400627.html


Quote
At least 39 people have been killed after a gunman attacked New Year revellers at a nightclub in Istanbul.
Another 69 people were wounded in the attack, which Istanbul's governor described as a "terrorist attack".
At least 16 foreign nationals were among the dead at the club which was popular with tourists, the Turkish interior ministry said.
Witnesses told how the gunman shot at police officers outside the Reina nightclub before opening fire at random inside the building.
The club was packed with 600 people celebrating the New Year - with many jumping into the nearby Bosphorus channel to escape.
The gunman is still at large. Reports that he was wearing a Santa Claus outfit have not been confirmed.
"The search for the terrorist continues... I hope (the assailant) will be captured quickly, God willing," said interior minister Suleyman Soylu.
One reveller told how she had to lift dead bodies off her to escape the building after the attack at 1.45am today, local time.
Television footage showed ambulances and police vehicles on the street outside the nightclub in the Ortakoy district.
Sinem Uyanik said she saw several bodies inside the club and her husband Lutfu Uyanik was wounded.
"Before I could understand what was happening, my husband fell on top me," she said outside Istanbul's Sisli Hospital.
"I had to lift several bodies from on top of me before I could get out." Her husband's condition was not said to be serious.
Governor Vasip Sahin said: "A terrorist with a long-range weapon ... brutally and savagely ...fired bullets on innocent people.
"They (the revellers) were there solely to celebrate the New Year and have fun."
The Foreign Commonwealth Office (FCO) said UK tourists should follow the advice of local authorities while remaining vigilant.
Attempts were being made to see whether any British nationals were among the injured.
The White House condemned the "horrific" attack, and the "savagery" of the attackers.
Ahead of the attack, security measures had been heightened in major Turkish cities, with police barring traffic leading up to key city squares.
In Istanbul, 17,000 police officers were put on duty, some camouflaged as Santa Claus and others as street vendors, Anadolu reported.
Ankara and Istanbul have been targeted by several attacks in 2016 carried out by the Islamic State group or Kurdish rebels.
The attacks have killed more than 180 people.

STRAŠNA SMRT MLADIĆA Bacio petardu pred fast food s kebabom, zaposlenici ga brutalno ubili

QuoteU poljskome gradu Elku u nedjelju su, nakon privođenja četvero stranih državljana osumnjičenih da su prethodnu noć nasmrt izboli jednog dvadesetjednogodišnjaka, izbili sukobi s pripadnicima snaga reda, izvijestila je policija.

"Nakon ubojstva u noći na nedjelju, priveli smo četiri strana državljana", rekla je glasnogovornica lokalne policija Agata Kulikowska, ne preciziravši koje su nacionalnosti osumnjičeni.

Poljska agencija PAP piše da je riječ o državljanima Tunisa, Maroka i Alžira te da su svi bili zaposlenici kebab fast fooda u Elku.

Po pisanju medija oni su brutalno reagirali kada je dvadesetjednogodišnji Poljak bacio petardu prema prodavaonici kebaba. Mladić je podlegao ranama dobivenim od dvaju uboda nožem.

Nekoliko stotina stanovnika Elka, među kojima su brojni imali petarde, u nedjelju poslijepodne okupili su se pred barom Prince Kebab, bacajući ih prema lokalu. Pritom su izvikivali rasističke uvrede te polomili prozore i dio opreme.

Policija je brzo intervenirala. "Priveli smo 21 osobu, uglavnom one najagresivnije. Stiglo je i pojačanje i stanje se smirilo", rekla je Kulikowska.

Gradonačelnik Elka pozvao je "na mir i poštovanje prema stradalome mladiću".

Heh, osveta trećeg sveta...

India's call-center talents put to a criminal use: Swindling Americans


QuoteBetsy Broder, who tracks international fraud at the Federal Trade Commission, was in her office in Washington last summer when she got a call from two Indian teenagers.
Calling from a high-rise building in a suburb of Mumbai, they told her, in tones that were alternately earnest and melodramatic, that they wanted to share the details of a sprawling criminal operation targeting Americans. Ms. Broder, who was no stranger to whistle-blowers, pressed the young men for details.
"He said his name was Adam," she said, referring to one of the pair. "I said, 'Your name is not Adam. What does your grandmother call you?' He said, 'Babu.'"
   Babu was Jayesh Dubey, a skinny 19-year-old with hair gelled into vertical bristles, a little like a chimney brush. He told her that he was working in a seven-story building and that everyone there was engaged in the same activity: impersonating Internal Revenue Service officials and threatening Americans, demanding immediate payment to cover back taxes.
     If they reached a person who was sufficiently terrified or gullible — this was known in the business as a "sale" — they would instruct that person to buy thousands of dollars' worth of iTunes cards to avoid prosecution, they said; the most rattled among them complied. The victim would then send the codes from the iTunes cards to the swindlers, giving them access to the money on the card.
As it happened, the United States government had been tracking this India-based scheme since 2013, a period during which Americans, many of them recent immigrants, have lost $100 million to it.
Though India had no reputation as a large-scaleexporter of
fraud in the past, it is now seen as a major center for cyberfraud, said Suhel Daud, an F.B.I. agent who serves as assistant legal attaché at the embassy in New Delhi. Several trends have converged to make this happen, he said: a demographic bulge of computer-savvy, young, English-speaking job seekers; a vast call-center culture; super-efficient technology; and what can only be described as ingenuity.
"They have figured all of this out," Mr. Daud said. "Put all of these together, with the Indian demographics in the U.S., and it's a[/color]natural
segue. Whatever money you're making, you can easily make 10 times as much."
'I Want Money. That's Why.' Pawan Poojary and Jayesh Dubey, best friends and college dropouts, were impressed with the Phoenix 007 call center in Thane, a suburb northeast of Mumbai. The interviewer carried an iPhone; there were racing sport[/color]bikes
parked outside, and, as Mr. Poojary put it, "girls roaming here and there." The monthly salary was average for call centers, 16,000 rupees (about $230), they said, but the bonuses were double or triple that, based on sales.
The two friends had been playing a video game for up to eight hours a day, pausing occasionally to eat. They wanted in.
"At that time, in my mind is that I want money," Mr. Poojary, 18, said. "That's it. I want money. That's why."
They said they showed up for training in a room of young Indians like themselves, the first in their family to be educated in English. They were a slice of aspirational India: Mr. Poojary's father, who owned two welding shops, was adamant that his son would rise to a higher place in society, an office job. Mr. Poojary was afraid to tell him he had dropped out of college.
The trainer assigned them names, Paul Edward and Adam Williams, and handed out a six-page script that started out, "My name is Shawn Anderson, with the department of legal affairs with the United States Treasury Department," the teenagers said.
"We read the script, and I asked, 'Is this a scam?'" Mr. Poojary said. "He said, 'Yes.'"
"At that time I am money-minded. I thought, 'O.K., I can do this,'" he said.
Mr. Poojary was excited and nervous about speaking to an American for the first time, and he was alarmed by the resulting bursts of profanity. Mr. Dubey said he tried to commit the entire experience to memory, in case he and Mr. Poojary someday decided to start a business of their own.
"I just wanted to become a great scammer," Mr. Dubey said. "Everyone was scamming around me. I thought, 'I will also become a great scammer.'"
The key to the whole thing, Mr. Dubey decided, was a psychological fact: Americans fear their state.
"I think they actually are really afraid of their government," he said. "In India, people are not afraid of police. If anyone wants to come and arrest, they say, 'Come and arrest.' It is easy to get out of anything. But in America they are afraid. We just need to tell them, 'You are messing with the federal government,' and that is all."
Preying on Fear Inaben Desai, of Sugar Land, Tex., came home from grocery shopping, and her mother handed her the[/color]phone
, eyes wide with alarm. Someone was on the line from the government, her mother said. They had called three or four times while she was out.
Ms. Desai, 56, worked as a cashier at Walmart. When she picked up the phone , a gruff-voiced man told her that she had failed to pay fees when she got her United States citizenship, in 1995, and that unless she did so she would be deported back to India, she said. When Ms. Desai said she needed to call her husband, a woman got on the phone, speaking sympathetically, in her native Gujarati.
"She said, 'If you involve your husband, there's going to be moreproblems,'" Ms. Desai said. "'Your husband is going to get in trouble, too. Don't involve your husband.'"
Ms. Desai had begun to cry. Still on the line with the woman, she took all the cash she had on hand and drove to a nearby grocery store, where she bought $1,386 in prepaid debit cards. Then the woman instructed her to go to her bank, transfer close to $9,000 to the account of someone named Jennifer, in California, and then fax confirmation and confidential details about her account.
"The bank lady tried to stop me, and she said, 'This is your personal information,'" Ms. Desai said. "But I'm scared, and I faxed it to them because I'm scared of what would happen to my family." The swindlers, who now had access to her bank balance, called back to demand another sum close to $9,000. Ms. Desai had to drive to another bank branch to make the transaction. The total amount she transferred, $17,786, was nearly all her savings.
Mr. Poojary was not the person who called Ms. Desai, whose case dates to 2014. But a similar conversation prompted him to contact the United States government. He recalled the woman's name as Regella, and said that when she begged him to give her a little time, Mr. Poojary felt so sorry for her that he went to his supervisor, who told him to push harder.
"I just feel guilty at that time," he said. "We are also Indians. We also don't have money. They also don't have money."
A few days later, he called the main switchboard at the I.R.S. and told the operator that he wanted to pass on information about a crime. "They are not listening, they are just laughing at me," he said.
Finally, he was transferred to Ms. Broder, the Federal Trade Commission's counsel for international consumer protection.
"He was fairly insistent," she recalled. "He was determined. The number of times he called me was overwhelming. I would guess that is why he was reading it out to me, because he wanted some form of law enforcement to take it down."
The Raid The risk of expanding a fraud aggressively is that the range of potential informants also expands. Supervisors may humiliate employees in front of their peers; paychecks may arrive late or not at all; ringleaders may spend so freely that they attract the gaze of tax officials.
The so-called Mira Road scam, named for the street the building was on, had moved into a single floor of the seven-story high-rise in early 2016. By summer it filled the whole building.
"It got big," said Mr. Daud, the F.B.I. agent. "And when it gets big, you leave bread crumbs."
Nitin Thakare, a senior police inspector at the crime branch in Thane, will not say much about the person who contacted him in September with a tip about Mira Road.
But he will describe the raid, in loving, cinematic detail: How at 10 p.m., after the last of the call center staff had arrived for the night shift, 200 police officers streamed up the main staircase, blocking every exit and detaining all 700 people who worked inside.
As morning approached, the street outside filled with the workers' parents, wives and girlfriends, said Amar Verma, who sells tea on the corner. "There was lots of sobbing," he said. "There was one mother who came with her car. She was crying alone, the poor thing. She was sitting on the pavement in front of me, crying. Her child had not come home."
Inside, the police cut the phone lines. Under interrogation, the suspects, one after another, insisted that they had been planning to quit just as soon as they collected their next paycheck, Mr. Thakare said. But the money made it hard to walk away, and after a few pay cycles, their qualms had faded. He felt for them.
"These are the youth of our nation," he said. "They were misguided. For the first few days it seems glamorous. Someone is teaching them an accent, people are smoking, there are women. There's freedom and night life. The youth love that."
The police said that others, like the landlord who had rented the building to the swindlers, wondered why the authorities cared in the first place. "He said, 'What happened?'" said Parag Manere, a deputy commissioner of police. "'We are not cheating people in India! We are cheating people in the U.S.! And the U.S. cheats the whole world!'"
The officers interviewed and released 630 of the call-center workers, arresting the 70 highest-ranking employees.
What they had stumbled on, it became clear, was a branch of a much larger network, the police said. Five days later, the police organized a second raid, of facilities in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, which they believed to be a nerve center. The United States Justice Department had come to the same conclusion: It has since released an indictment tracing 1.8 million calls targeting United States residents to five call centers in Ahmedabad that used various schemes to defraud more than 15,000 people out of hundreds of millions of dollars.
By the time the police arrived at the Ahmedabad location, though, the syndicate was gone. "The place where we raided, it was a thousand-seat call center," Mr. Manere said. "When we got there it was empty. Empty. Nothing. Not a piece of paper. Empty halls. Empty halls."
'It Will Not Stop' Mr. Poojary said he happened to be at a job interview when he learned that the call center on Mira Road had been raided.
It was an honest, mundane customer service job, advising the customers of Delta Air Lines on such matters as lost baggage and frequent-flier miles, for a mediocre monthly salary of $150. He was sitting on a waiting room sofa when he picked up The Times of India and read that 700 of his co-workers had been detained the night before.
The first person he contacted was Ms. Broder, to tell her that the raid had hit the same operation he had described to her. That night, he and Mr. Dubey, who had left the Mira Road call center after contacting Ms. Broder, celebrated over drinks.
"We brought it down," Mr. Dubey said. "It started out as fun, then it got boring, then we truly understood the good and dirty parts of the job. Then we decided to bring it down."
Whistle-blowers' motives are often murky, and in their early conversations, Ms. Broder wondered fleetingly whether the two friends were calling on behalf of the scheme's organizers to determine what American investigators knew. In an interview with The New York Times, the two men acknowledged being fired from the call center after getting into an altercation with co-workers.
Their claim to have brought down the center is unfounded, according to Indian and American investigators, who said that the raid in Thane was carried out entirely by the local police, without assistance from American officials. The Thane police said their informant was not employed by the swindlers. The raid was international news, and in the weeks that followed, the number of fraudulent I.R.S. calls to Americans dropped 95 percent, according to the Better Business Bureau.
But those who believe that the drop is permanent should consider this: In the weeks after Mr. Poojary and Mr. Dubey left the call center, several lucrative job opportunities were presented to them. Each involved a telephone scheme targeting Americans, they said. There was the Viagra scam, in which the callers offered to sell cut-rate Viagra; there was a low-interest loan scam, in which people were asked to deposit $1,000 as proof of income. There was a tech scam, which warned Americans that their computer had been infected by a virus, and an American Express scam, which involved gathering personal information to break through security barriers on online accounts.
"Even if you shut down 400 buildings in India, it will not stop," said Mr. Dubey, now known by his Delta clients as Jacob Davis. The two friends say they have given up on the notion of getting rich quickly, or of being paid by the United States government for the information they provided.
It has been replaced by a new hope: That, perhaps as a result of the public service they have provided, they will be granted visas to the United States, the home of so many of their favorite things: "The Fast and the Furious," Vin Diesel and Robert Downey Jr. "I've spent so much time getting to know it, familiarizing myself with its states, talking to its people," Mr. Dubey said. "I feel a bond."

U.S. Navy ship fired warning shots at Iranian vessels


QuoteWASHINGTON (Reuters) - A U.S. Navy destroyer fired three warning shots at four Iranian fast-attack vessels near the Strait of Hormuz after they closed in at high speed and disregarded repeated requests to slow down, U.S. officials said on Monday.
The incident, which occurred on Sunday and was first reported by Reuters, comes as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump prepares to take office on Jan. 20. In September, Trump vowed that any Iranian vessels that harassed the U.S. Navy in the Gulf would be "shot out of the water."
"This was an unsafe and unprofessional interaction, and that is due to the fact that they were approaching at a high level of speed with weapons manned and disregarding repeated warnings," Captain Jeff Davis, a Pentagon spokesman, said in a briefing.
The warning shots were fired at the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps boats by the USS Mahan after it established radio contact but failed to get them to slow down, Davis said, confirming earlier accounts of U.S. defense officials.
Those officials, speaking to Reuters on condition of anonymity, said the Iranian vessels came within 900 yards (800 meters) of the Navy destroyer, which was escorting two other U.S. military ships.
The Mahan also fired flares and a U.S. Navy helicopter also dropped a smoke float before the warning shots, they said.
The IRGC and Trump transition team were not immediately available for comment.
The White House said the Iranian vessels had behaved in an unacceptable manner and that such incidents risked increasing tensions.
"At this point the United States does not know what the intentions of the Iranian vessels were, but the behavior is not acceptable given that the USS Mahan was operating in international waters," White House spokesman Josh Earnest said during a press conference on Monday.
Years of mutual animosity eased when Washington lifted sanctions on Tehran last year after a deal to curb Iran's nuclear ambitions. But serious differences still remain over Iran's ballistic missile program as well as conflicts in Syria and Iraq.
One of the U.S. defense officials said similar incidents occur occasionally.
Most recently in August, another U.S. Navy ship fired warning shots toward an Iranian fast-attack craft that approached two U.S. ships.
In January 2016, Iran freed 10 U.S. sailors after briefly detaining them in the Gulf.
The one official added that the warning shots fired on Sunday were just one of seven interactions the Mahan had with Iranian vessels over the weekend, but the others were judged to be safe.

Naime, gosti restorana u Padovi poželjeli su isprobati kinesku delikatesu - šape medvjeda, a konobar, čije ime nije poznato, za to vrijeme je u kuhinji restorana snimio ono što im je poslužio.

Ono što je na fotografiji vidljivo su dva razrezana komada mesa koja djeluju kao dijelovi ljudske noge, no konobar tvrdi da je riječ o medvjeđim šapama koje je poslužio jednom Slovencu i njegovim prijateljima.

Nakon što se fotografija proširila društvenim mrežama, restoran je prijavljen nadležnim vlastima.

Policija i inspekcija pronašli su 24 kilograma mesa i smrznute ribe sumnjiva podrijetla. Osim toga, restoran se ne pridržava standardna čistoće, pa su tako zatekli hladnjak, podove i pećnicu u potpunom neredu, a dijelu namirnica istekao je rok trajanja.

Policija je konzultirala forenzičare kako bi pogledali fotografiju noge i njima na prvi pogled izgleda kao da je riječ o dijelu ljudskog tijela. Istraga je i dalje u tijeku, a fotografiju možete pogledati OVDJE.

Em vest neverovatna, em je prenose tabloidi, pitam se ima li tu necega???

Ovog konobara kazniti zbog sirenja panike - ljudske noge u restoranima jos nisu poceli da sluze. Psece, mozda.

No, salu na stranu, "vest" smrdi do neba.

Eight men own half the world's wealth: Oxfam

Quote

London (AFP) - Eight men own the same wealth as half the world's population, a level of inequality which "threatens to pull our societies apart", Oxfam said on Monday ahead of the World Economic Forum opening in Davos.
The wealth of the world's poorest 3.6 billion people is the equivalent to the combined net worth of six American businessmen, one from Spain and another from Mexico.
Picked from Forbes' billionaires list, they include Microsoft founder Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg who co-founded Facebook, and Jeff Bezos, founder of Amazon.
Oxfam pointed to a link between the vast gap between rich and poor and growing discontent with mainstream politics around the world.
"From Brexit to the success of Donald Trump's presidential campaign, a worrying rise in racism and the widespread disillusionment with mainstream politics, there are increasing signs that more and more people in rich countries are no longer willing to tolerate the status quo," Oxfam said in its new report, "An economy for the 99 percent".
The charity said new data on wealth distribution from countries such as India and China had prompted it to revise its own calculation, having said a year ago the wealth of half the world's population was in the hands of 62 people.
Inequality will be among the issues topping the agenda as the world's political and business elite meet in Davos from Tuesday until Friday, when 3,000 people will gather for the annual meeting of the World Economic Forum.
"Responsive and responsible leadership" has been chosen as the theme of the summit, which organisers said was a response to a "backlash against globalisation leading to two surprising vote results and a rise in populism in the West".
In its report Oxfam called for an increase in tax rates targeting "rich individuals and cooperations", as well as a global agreement to end competition between countries to lower corporate tax rates.
The charity also decried lobbying by corporations and the closeness of business and politics, calling for mandatory public lobby registries and stronger rules on conflicts of interest.

Universal Basic Income treba da se testira u Keniji:

Ebay founder backs tests to give people free money

Quote

The idea of a universal basic income has found growing support in Silicon Valley as robots threaten to radically change the nature of work.

Ebay founder Pierre Omidyar is the latest tech bigwig to get behind the concept. His philanthropic investment firm, the Omidyar Network, announced Wednesday that it will give nearly half a million dollars to a group testing the policy in Kenya.
SEE ALSO: Could 2017 be the year people take universal basic income seriously?
Universal basic income is the notion that a government should guarantee every citizen a yearly sum of money, no strings attached. The thinking is that such a program would relieve economic stress as automation technology severely reduces the demand for labor.

Theories along these lines have existed for centuries, but their proponents have never had much luck convincing governments to give them a shot. Thus, the only data on real-world effects come from a few scattered experiments throughout the years.

GiveDirectly is looking to add to that knowledge with one of the biggest trials of a basic income system in history.

The group recently launched a 12-year pilot program in which it plans to give 6,000 Kenyans regular stipends for the entire duration. Around 20,000 more will receive at least some form of cash transfer.

The Omidyar Network is hoping the study will help advance the debate around basic income from broad theoretical terms to more practical considerations.

"While the discussion has generated a lot of heat, it hasn't produced very much light," wrote the Omidyar Network's Mike Kubzansky and Tracy Williams in a blog post announcing the pledge. "There is very little research and empirical evidence on how and when UBI could best be used."

Omidyar isn't the only tech mogul backing efforts to take the theory from paper to practice.

Startup incubator Y-Combinator is in the midst of one such study in the Bay Area, and its president, Sam Altman, and Facebook co-founder Chris Hughes have kicked $10 million towards another research project.

A number of other tests have also cropped up in recent months as universal basic income finds more mainstream acceptance.
