Slashdot: Finding a Ready-Made Dev Team?

So someone asked a question on how to find a [software] development team that is ready to go but the someone/small startup "don't have time or funds to go through a developer recruiting cycle, create a practice, get the team 'gelled' etc." In addition this team is only used for getting the product out the door, after that there is no guarantee the team will be with the small startup.
This someone must be on drugs. First this someone wants an entire team to work for them for free. Second this someone wants the team to somehow magically form a relationship with the someone/startup and be able to understand thoroughly the how the product works and be able to build it. Finally after the product is built the someone thinks the product is finished so the team is just working short term, after that it's anybody's guess.
Wow! What a way to attract talent. It's like wanting to know the answers but not doing the homework to get to the answers. And finally wanting to sell the answers off as their own.
This someone is definitely inexperienced and very much on drugs!
