Capitalism is about the means of production being privately owned. It's quite possible to have a socialist society in which you get what you can pay for.

Of course it is, but that's not relevant to the point being made.

... with the subsequent implication that things need to be operated for profit. As a result people have to pay for their services, so people can only get what they can pay for, which is the point.

Going back to the original comment[0]:

My point is that this is unavoidable under capitalism.

  Capitalism => private ownership of production
             => operation for profit
             => charging for services
             => only get what you pay for
             => classist, elitist society
                  (according to kafkaesque[1])

This may not be limited to capitalism, but it is an unavoidable consequence of it.
