giving people enough money to live on with no strings attached

There's always strings attached, either directly or indirectly.

50 years from now, I think it will seem ridiculous that we used fear of not being able to eat as a way to motivate people.

Considering current political trends, I find it significantly likely that in 50 years government would use fear of many different things as a tactic to "motivate" people (food among them).
