Do they expect everything to be built by some slaves or by volunteers?

I feel like those "I want FOSS for everything" people seriously thinks software devs are slaves who must fulfill their wishes at any time and if they happened to make money in some way or other, it's like they are the devils themselves.

it doesn't matter if it's a company or one guy who purely spends his free time with a project.
