Unemployment is a goal for lots of people. Many people save money in order not to have to work in the future.
So the problem is about what to do with people who are unable to save money and thus need a job. The basic income idea seems to assume that those people should be assisted and given the capital they were unable to buy by themselves.
It's not much a different issue than with current unemployment and welfare programs. Only the scale is different.
