Remittances can certainly be described as redistribution of surplus wealth and it would be incorrect to claim that remittances are not at least part of the solution–would this fellow disagree?

no society has access to a true free market and thus the ‘constraints’ he suggests seem disingenuous–a world where ‘free markets’ are in conflict with ‘civil society’ is certainly not the one which we inhabit. Is it not the case that small, medium and large-scale business are the most significant drivers of the economic progress seen in India and China?
