"Less incentive to work"
Yes! And more incentive to start a company!
That's why big-corps/govts that employ a lot of low-wagers don't like this idea;
and small-self-owned, small-hi-tech-govt, and potential biz starters without access to funding tend to like it.
The level of the guaranteed income can be "low", thereby leaving "some" incentive to work.
I like the fairness, low-overhead and the sigma-reduction of this method of wealth re-distribution very much. This method is not directly/economically benefiting the 1% -- sure, I agree on that. But it helps _a lot_ of people to live more comfortable and puts pressure on good labour conditions from the bottom up.
Go Switzerland; please lead the way on this one -- it hope and predict it to be a great experiment!
