Thanks for replying with some well-thought-out arguments.

Why are free rider effects acceptable when someone moves from New York to California but not when it's India to California?

There are two, distinct forces at play here. Free-rider effects and cost subsidization.

The non-local worker would start paying taxes into that system? If a corporation is taxed on it's profits, wouldn't they start paying more into that social community.
