That is a wonderfully romanticized representation of the people that come here. You can drop the freedom part altogether, but the prosperity part is true insofar as what they can accomplish both by themselves and with government benefits.
The vast majority of immigrants are culturally unfamiliar with and entirely opposed to freedom as we understand it. Freedom is a rapidly dying ideal in the United States, but it is already dead everywhere else.
I am reminded of George Carlin's bit that goes something along these lines: "Picture how stupid the average person is. Now realize half of them are dumber than that!"
