"Basic employment" sounds a lot like "the military" (or, in the USA, national guard etc). While they don't accept literally anyone, they will take mostly anyone and give them a job that they can perform reasonably well. Sometimes this is flying planes, but more often it's mopping floors and keeping track of inventory. To paraphrase a friend, the military can take somebody that's dumb as fuck and fit them into a little box where they perform one simple task well.

Unfortunately it also comes with a substantial loss of rights, which will probably become a feature of universal basic income programs anyway...
