Richard, the Negative Income Tax was simply Friedman's proposal as a means to replace the current minimum wage and welfare programs.
He'd prefer absolutely no income tax at all but if a welfare of some kind had to be installed, that was his solution for it. Doesn't mean it's what he actually wanted overall.
AS for Hayek, I just read most of the chapter that Wikipedia suggests is the source for his support for Basic Income Guarantee and I can't find any support for that in there at all.
