Yeah, however, the problem with breaking laws around immigration in a place you like is that you won't have to do much to become ineligible for the convenient visa options. As in, get caught by immigration working on a tourist visa, get no tourist visa approved for the next 10~20 years. If you get a visa at all, that is, though I understand merely violating conditions, not breaking normal laws or overstaying has no good reason to get you banned from entry itself.



You can be banned from the US for any reason, or no reason, just because they don’t like the look of your face, or the officer is having a bad day, etc.

Regardless of what the law says you don’t have any right to enter the US, regardless of what visa you hold (except perhaps a green card), so be friendly, look wealthy and important, and say the right things.
