Robbie took the not-uncommon approach of "being just about to love the FairTax" (or words to that effect) if someone could just explain "one more thing" to him.

Of course you can never explain that "just one more thing" since when you do it always becomes something else and morphs around and around.

He is opposed to the FairTax - but not for his stated "intellectual honesty" BS reasons. I believe the true case is he has a good thing going now and doesn't wish to see it altered ... so much for intellectual honesty.

His grandstanding vanity posts are actually a sign of this. He's quite probably one on the non-compliance folks under the present tax system that make up something like 20-25% of tax revenue collected presently.

Yes. I'm still puzzled, I admit, about what stake some of these people have in the current tax game that leads them to spend so much time trying to get in the way of any serious reform. People of the kind who cheat the system usually don't spend their time trying to keep the system any particular way. They just plan on cheating any system, whatever it is.
