The usefulness of a thing makes it a use-value.
Use-value is thus never to be treated as the immediate aim of the capitalist.
The whole argument is based on confusing use-value with value.
Use-value serves once again as back-ground in order from there to make the leap into quasi-endlessness.
So what he has done is to suddenly bring back use-value into the idea of value.

The remainder of use-value which cannot be resolved into labour is the gift of nature, and hence in its essence common property.
We have seen that, in order to become a commodity, a use-value must be a non-use-value for its owner.
The use-value which the former gets in exchange, manifests itself only in the actual usufruct, in the consumption of the labour-power.
For instance, land takes part as an agent of production, in the creation of a use-value, of a material product, of wheat.
In the reference to others, only the use-value being is addressed, not its exchange-value being, which refers to money.
It has not yet been definitely reconverted into money, it has not yet passed as a use-value into productive or individual consumption.
But so long as scarcity holds sway, use-value remains a decisive category which, can only be abolished by trickery.
The money therefore does not become capital, but on the contrary,it loses its existence as exchange-value in order to be consumed and expended as use-value.
It expresses furthermore that exchange-value, not use-value, is the determining aim of this movement.
For in each of these prices in which the exchange-value of the commodity is expressed in money,the exchange-value of money is expressed in the use-value of the commodity.
Why should someone profit from the use-value of land by the mere fact of owning it, especially when the origin of that ownership is based on ancient injustice?
Capital is thus conceived as a constant change of forms, into which use-value is constantly both integrated and expelled.
Use-value, market-price, production-price- these are the categories which are put before us by the theories of value which differ from the labour theory of value.
But in the value-form, in the exchange-relation,the coat appears here only as a use-value, while the linen appears as the phenomenal form of value.
His aim is to produce not only a use-value, but a commodity also; not only use-value, but value; not only value, but at the same time surplus-value.
Excluded, however, are savings, investments and loan repayments etc., as well as the use-value of collective public and social services received.
Exchange value remains tied to use-value, and thus to the final consumer, no matter by how many steps it is separated from him in the increasingly complex production system.
What he requires is a commodity which serves as general equivalent, which, as the direct embodiment of value,has use-value for every body as a matter of course.
The circumstance that his commodity must be a use-value is, however, only a necessary evil for the commodity producer, and not the object of his social activity.
Hence, we see that behind all atempts to represent the circulation of commodities as a source of surplus-value, there lurks a quid pro quo,a mixing up of use-value and exchange value.
Labour-power cannot be separated from the labourer, and during the whole time that the use-value of labour-power belongs to the capitalist, the person of the labourer also belongs to him.
Rodbertus had written a letter to him which may be read in the Tübingen Zeitschrift[19] of 1878, in which he, Rodbertus,expounds why there is“only one kind of value”: use-value.
Pure Flow inverts this use-value by revealing the noise generated between GPS data systems and multiple satellites, 3G networks and Wifi hotspots, as a tangible presence in the environment.
But if 20 yards of linen is equated with 1 bushel of corn, or again with 1 coat, it is now corn or coat which appears as the embodiment of general human labour,while the linen figures again as use-value.
In all cases, therefore, the use-value of the labour-power is advanced to the capitalist: the labourer allows the buyer to consume it before he receives payment of the price; he everywhere gives credit to the capitalist.
