If anyone on the right bothered to think about anything ever, they'd realise this as an obvious fact. The amount of work it takes to get here discourages activities that would put it at risk. Maybe natural-born citizens would commit fewer crimes as well, if they could have the right to be here ripped away from them like immigrants can.
