I think you give markets way less credit than they deserve. Check out http://wonderfulloaf.org and see if you are persuaded.

Don't think there's anything wrong with markets per se, but implementation details are important.

Markets where some players have considerably more coercive power than others don't tend to produce good outcomes.
