It’s hard to disentangle cause and effect here.
Those regions could be in even worse shape were it not for remittances.
Or they could be in even better shape if the migrants had stayed at home and worked on improving their own countries instead of brain draining to the USA.
Remittances are not some kind of economic cheat code or the basis of a national development policy, they’re basically a painkiller that might help prevent a complete collapse of the country.
