Of course if there is MAGICALLY enough 'resources' all citizens could enjoy basic income.

Of course, if there is somehow 'enough money' in the system let's give it to the people to guarantee 'sustainable and desirable quality of life'. Question is where to take such large amounts of money for everyone. I know one country where citizens get free money - Quatar, that's because of oil and because they use cheap labor from immigrants from various African and Asian countries.
Whole idea of basic income is like from communist manifesto. You need to exploit someone or some other nation in order to get money for your citizen who wants to have 'sustainable quality of life for free'. A) exploit rich people B) exploit immigrants and use them for cheap labor
both ways are historically verified

Basic income means that people who are willing to work will pay probably higher taxes. I believe that will be easier for some people who do not earn much to just stay home with basic income. Then less people will be economically active (who will do low wage jobs ?) and taxes will need to go higher etc... It's economical spiral of death for whole nation.
