Exactly. That's what I meant by putting "something" in italics. You don't necessarily need to produce capitalist output in the current sense, but you need to contribute some value to a community unless you're fundamentally unable to. If you're unable to contribute (not unwilling) because of an disability or some other constraint, then I think the community should help you with your challenges. But those situations are very exceptional, since even disabled people can usually contribute quite a lot to society. I clarified in a comment lower down but someone removed it without explanation, even though it broke no rules, insulted no one, and clearly outlined the concepts of differing ideologies.
