Yeah sorry you clearly didn't understand the concept correctly so tried to explain it. In the words u/NuncErgoFacite, once real necessity kicks in, now you'll either understand it ... or you won't. Best of luck!

I want to like your comment but it doesn't make sense.
>Capitalism creates an artificial or auto-necessity by using economic pressure on discovery/research and development.
Capitalism is a system for allocating capital and deciding what resources are dedicated to solving what problems. In communism the government decides. In capitalism return, or expected benefit, decides. Capitalism doesn't create the needs. Humans create the needs. Capitalism is a mechanism for deciding what needs have resources dedicated to them. With capitalism we've seen more needs resourced and more innovation over a longer period of time than any other system.
>But if humanity were facing a global food shortage, real-necessity would kick in and we would find a way - or not
So if we were facing a global food short we would innovate ... or not innovate. Groundbreaking
