For their conclusion, they compare America to the economy of England in the 1850s, described in Dicken's "Bleak House". Two types of young personalities were doomed to inherit: the indestructible economic type who foresakes childhood and "resemble old monkeys with something depressing on their minds". Solely concerned with making money. A human weed. The other character is one incapacitated by suspense, with everything postponed awaiting the outcome of a legally-convoluted legacy. A young "disfigured by deferred hopes." [172-173] These choices are very like the ones faced "in our time of change".
