This is a good empathetic arguement for socialism. Unfortunately many terrible people like the second solution of just killing off the unemployable in various ways. This was usually done through invading neighbors which increases ones own power and reduces your own unemployable workforce. If you don't want to kill off your own people, you may also have a minority group in your borders that can be put on trains for removal in various ways. Unfortunately the Karl Marx saw a common issue in history and proposed an empathetic way to solve it, but most people I know are assholes and prefer the second option.
No communistic / socialistic people actually believe that garbage, the whole point of communism and socialism is to provide for people's basic needs. I've never once met someone that seriously talks about communism who would actually suggest using people like that. And communism doesn't mean democracy, the best systems are obviously ones where people have equal opportunity to voice their opinions and needs equally.
It's actually a bad faith argument by capitalists who struggle to see the use of a human being beyond how much labor they can be used for.
More like spouted something that had nothing at all to do with communism on any level other than some bogeyman scare tactic propaganda bullshit designed to pathetically attempt to make communism look bad.
