Many factors are making the need for a universal basic income increasingly important but I'm not sure if we will see it come to fruition in our lifetimes... I think its a good idea but centuries of human history don't have a single case study with a successful implementation of this idea. Still, it doesn't mean it is impossible.

Nothing new to welfare. Welfare is as old as civilization itself.
Universal basic income is just a streamlined version of welfare that will be implemented after permanent and high structural unemployment starts to have a negative impact too serious to ignore.
