> If you would like more than this, you can go and get a job and hopefully earn more (have a better lifestyle) than staying at home not working.

Except this isn't the case, since benefits are usually cut when you starting working. This means that you start work in an insecure job with no necessary increase in quality of life.

With a guaranteed income, if you were to get a job, you'd have a guaranteed increase in your quality of life, since the benefits are always there, so there is actually more incentive to work.
