6. $100,000 Per Worker?

I can't really tell... is it $100,000 for each worker desired, or is it $100,000 and apply for however many is desired?

Regardless, the number is too low. The wallets of State Farm, IBM, Amazon and Google spill $100,000 bills on the floor when they are looking for a $10 to pay for coffee. I do actually appreciate thei idea, but it doesn't begin to create much of a barrier at the levels where it's truly being abused.
