Why do programs written in Haskell not have side effects?

To have side effects someone would have to run the programs.

Yeah, there's like two projects that use Haskell. Doesn't change the fact that it's the language that most people know and will never write anything productive in it.

Eh, i'm not a math type but for them, Haskell is chef's kiss from what i've heard.
