How is it possible that, start up's run by college kids with funding around quarter of $200,000 build stuff and a business around them. So that not only do they build the product completely but also get money for further work.

From what I make of this, either we are not managing money and people/resources well. Or just that we are too much into this socialism thing?

I still believe we can pull this thing off, Its possible. There will be contributors. And people will contribute provided we build something that works well for most common definition of production use. There would not have been Perl 5 or its contributors if Larry hadn't done the base work.

In order for people to buy that Perl 6 has future. They first need to be shown that there is something workable now as per most commonly accepted definitions of Production ready.
