Partly because of the inherent decency and solidarity of the working class, who will not shaft each other even if the system pays them to.
Well, the average working class person doesn't have the means to gain from the system in that way. So when they decide to cheat, they do so in more basic ways, like becoming burglars, thieves, dodgy tradesmen, and other kinds of low-level career criminals.
I don't buy your romantic view of "the decency and solidarity of the working class". People in all walks of life are decent - with, always, a small percentage who are not so decent. That's as true of the "working class" as of other classes, if you want to make that split.
With the possible exception of lawyers and politicians of course.
