I think that giving only "basic" income is a bad stopping point. If the only thing most people can afford to buy is basics of food and shelter, then there won't even be any jobs for them if they want a better life than that. If instead the basic income allows for discretionary spending, then there would be a huge market of consumers to serve, and jobs would appear to serve them. Some people will be willing to work occasionally so that they can have even more spending money for other things.
