Thanks for replying with some well-thought-out arguments.<p>Why are free rider effects acceptable when someone moves from New York to California but not when it&#x27;s India to California?<p>There are two, distinct forces at play here.  Free-rider effects and cost subsidization.<p>The non-local worker would start paying taxes into that system?  If a corporation is taxed on it&#x27;s profits, wouldn&#x27;t they start paying more into that social community.
