  Question 219: Why doesn't Marx go from the Simple form of value directly to the General form of value by letting everyone express their values in the same commodity?   
  [272] ZACH: Simple form to General Form.   On my original answer I was obviously not thinking of the same thing the question was asking. Marx didn't go from Simple form of value to general form of value because he realizes how the Simple form just basically flows easily into the Expanded form of value. As I did say somewhat in my initial response though was that people won't always have the same opinion on the same commodity. There are different expressions that come because of the Simple form which means that the expressions won't be the same for the same commodity, rather for different commodities.
