Hi,

Black markets aren't quite the same as dealing in illegal drugs but 
they are in a similarly shady neighborhood.

Actually, they are.

I believe that the the NIC's 
     are stewards of a public resource and that IP addresses should
     be allocated on the basis of demonstrated need, not market forces.

Market forces have been shown to be a more efficient mechanism to
determine "need" than central planning when no objective and easily
measured criteria can be determined.
