> So why do you assume that huge numbers of other people would?

Because it's already happening

Most people don't have the skills to get a better job neither they have the will

Look at the numbers of hartz IV in Germany

The choice is a basic income or a shitty job with no basic income

And they are almost forcing people to work in what they call "mini jobs" to lower the number of unoccupied people, but it's not really working

If they could all have a basic income, regardless of working or not, they would not work, but have more children and more income for the family
