That pretty much describes a large percentage of immigrants these days. People used to come here to build a better life and integrate into the society, that's been changing for a long time. Just look at the number of immigrants today who don't even bother learning the language, they do however expect all of the free benefits they can get.
So much for "building" a better life.
