A pre-emptive response to a likely counter+opinion: "But then no one will want to work".
Some, but mostly just the ones that won't or can't work now. And basic income will ALLOW some others to work, such as people who now can't afford child or dependent care or who can't afford transport to a job. Or who don't have an address for paperwork or a home where they can shower and rest enough to hold a job. It's mych harder to work if you are very very poor.
