I don't see much economical benefit in my health deteriorating and me living much less than I otherwise could. I also don't see much economical benefit in being suddenly displaced from a privileged position and, at best, sent to a prison in a country which just shed excessive inequality - so prisons aren't that good.
So - which economical advantage you're talking about?
