People can still make TVs without capitalism...

Sure, but what I am saying is it could fit in there.

The fact that we live under capitalism today? People can grow crops without feudalism as well, but it's not up to the individual serfs to decide if they want farm for themselves and their community, or for their liege lord. But the very same factories that produce consumer goods with a profit incentive today, can do the same for the benefit of the people tomorrow.

Yes. Until everyone ends up in poverty, because over time, nobody knows what to make and how much. The longer the supply chain the stronger the effect will be.
