Value-Form for Dummies
The value-form is the most basic component of the capitalist economy. Basically, it goes like this: 100 cents = 1 dollar. It seems simple enough, but let's go deeper. The 100 cents is the relative value, the thing that can be exchanged for another, which in this case would be a dollar. The dollar is the exchange value, the value in which the cents take their value as a dollar. To avoid confusion though, the relative value is not the value in the sense of its worth in the system but only as a means to be equal to something other than itself. It cannot measure itself, just as steel cannot measure its weight if it had no other object to measure its weight against. Do not confuse this with use-values, they are in-fact not the same. Use-values are an articles value through its usefulness or being a tool for a particular useful thing for someone to possess. In the value-form the fact that it is useful is not included in the equation.

Writings(not coming until done with the list)
- ↑ From the few chapaters i've read of unique and its property, he's my favorite writer so far. Sad that he's misrepresented as a wholesum anarcho-nihilist redditor. I also understand why camel likes him so much.
- ↑ As a direct antithesis of it, like Poe I wish to escape it, haunted by the romantic image. Although some romantic art is good i'll give it that.
