Eventually, we will likely get to something like this. I don't see it happening any time soon though. At some point, automation and robots will take away pretty much every non-skilled job out there and we will be in a time where there simply aren't enough jobs for everyone. When that happens we will have large swaths of the population with no way to support themselves. A universal basic income will at least give them enough to exist on. If we don't do that I could see crime skyrocketing.
