people who describe markets as a "system" are bullshitting you 

there is nothing inherently intelligent about a market and I wish economists and market anarchists would stop talking about it in terms of complex systems when they are talking entirely out of their asses. There is no emergent intelligence, or consistently beneficial properties, that can be quantified. If anything it is a pristine example of a completely non self-regulating chaotic mess that will spit out different outcomes with minor random changes in its environment which are difficult to plan for.

No, its all bullshit. Actually the people who benefit from this are the ones aware of the chaos, who can take advantage of how disorganized everything is, and create auxilliary systems of control like finance.
