Yeah, on it's own it would be pretty lackluster. Combine it with a universal healthcare system, and you sidestep a lot of semi-valid criticisms, like "What, everyone in insurance is just unemployed now?" Do it right and you can use the existing bureaucracy. Medicare's accounts payable is now paying the workers instead of the company, sort of thing.
I'm hesitant about full on universal income though. In the US's present economy, it just seems like a giveaway to landlords and middlemen. Maybe after some tighter market controls are implemented...
