Mount Joy, Pennsylvania — If you think your taxes are high, one Pennsylvania man probably has you beat, as he says his jaw dropped when he got his latest tax bill.
Barry Tangert says he was charged more than 34 billion dollars in overdue taxes, penalties, and interest by the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.

Barry says this year, his tax preparer noticed a mistake on his 2022 return and sent in an amended return.
