I agree. There needs to be a fair and level playing field. I would support
any action to resolve this matter.

I happen to agree with the ARIN attorney.  Why should legacy customers get a
free ride.  We pay significantly more for our
allotment, so should they.  If they paid a fair price, all of our prices
would be reduced.  
 
In my geographical area it's becoming critical as a local competitor has a
legacy class B and can give away IP addresses as if
they're water.  I can not and they have an unfair competitive advantage. 
 
We should all be treated the same.

Holy context batman, that is quite a bit different than your statement.
 
You also cut off the part where he says he hasn't thought about it much,
and the part where he notes 'the government gave away something without
any strings attached'.  That is an agreement with the government. So Mr.  
Ryan appears to have mis-spoken about some lack of agreement between the
government and legacy holders.
 
And you left off the part about:
 
"I've thought about whether I could ask the United States Congress for 
authority to have the government obtain back that which the government 
gave. I don't know if that's constitutional, actually. I mean, I've 
started to play with different theories here."
 
So the answer is that the ARIN Lawyer doesn't know.  ARIN hasn't offered
any definitive opinion as you assert. 
 
Please tell the IETF you were wrong.

Where is this counsel statement?

"MR. RYAN: I've thought a little bit about what a stick might look like 
here. So for example, it's very clear to me that denial of service by ARIN 
is legally permitted. In other words, I don't believe we, as the non-profit 
trying to carry out the community's wishes, have a duty to provide free 
services for legacy address holders. And the denial of those free services 
to legacy address holders pursuant to their lack of agreement is perfectly 
permitted, in my judgment, as a matter of law."
