I think you seriously underestimate both the illegal immigrant, and more importantly,the ethic they teach their children. I don't discount that there are illegals who are criminals, but I believe most (more than 51%) are trying to escape a life of poverty, and see the US as a way to a better life.
As for "very few people"... I worked a 12 hour night shift 4 days a week and maintained a full credit college semesters to earn my Bachelor's in Computer Science, and at the same time saw many others doing the same thing. People come to America because of the promise of a better life, and usually are willing to work as hard or harder to maintain it than those got it handed to them due to their birth.
