I would have to disagree with that, because it's too broad. I would say it is true that you can't have a society with no feedbacks- in other words, consequences. Carrots and sticks. In capitalism, the most important feedback is profit. But profit as the main feedback path has obvious problems- it ignores human suffering and environmental damage and so forth. That's why pure capitalism can only exist as an abstraction. You have to put it within a very carefully designed legal system. Communism is the same way. A society where every product of industry is free, and nobody has to work, is obviously silly. However a communist society with appropriate consequences in place is completely plausible.
