MASS. COUNTY RECORDER SEEKS MILLIONS IN UNPAID MERS RECORDING FEES « Livinglies's Weblog:

"EDITOR’S COMMENT: A couple of million here, a couple of million there, the next thing is you’re talking real money. Here is one County looking at only 2010 and coming up with a figure of around $2 million owed. A fair assumption is that the figure would rise to over $20 million going back to the beginning of this mess, especially if you add interest, penalties for non-filing etc. And then there is the question of other taxes and fees that might apply to such transfers, especially if a fee or profit was involved."
