There have been referendums which rejected and accepted marijuana decriminalization, rejected and accepted abortion legalization, rejected and accepted EU membership etc. The fact that one country has decided against something in a referendum says very little about the proposition itself.
It's hard for the average citizen to get their head around... It goes against a lot of what we are taught about society. Change will come, but it's going to be slow and will take some braver Western country to implement it fully and show the benefits before the other countries follow suit.
Anyone who has looked into this subject will understand that a UBI is essential for humanity to move forward with technology. Unfortunately the majority of people are still too indoctrinated to think outside the box & will desperately try to hold onto our old economic system. I expect huge resistance to UBI from the less open minded(majority).
