This is an Earth-conscious parable inspired by the upcoming Captain Planet film (producer: Leo DiCaprio).

He-Man and his mighty animal-ally Battlecat crossed the portal dimension and crossed over from their realm Eternia and arrived on Earth in the summer of 2018. He-Man/Battlecat decided to make a special excursion to the Philadelphia Zoo. They appreciated the various animal exhibits and species habitats and contemplated how America coordinated capitalism with lifestyle consciousness. Did U.S. President Donald Trump (a former casino-baron) care about animals and vegetation and Earth's ecosystems? That's what He-Man and Battlecat were determined to 'analyse.'
He-Man/Battlecat noticed a very nice snow-white Polar Bear at the Philadelphia Zoo. When passerby wondered why such a muscular man was walking around the zoo with a large Bengal tiger on a leash (Battlecat), He-Man explained that he wanted his cat-pet to appreciate the many splendors of the U.S. city of Philadelphia (home of Independence Hall --- where the symbolic Declaration of Independence was signed by America's 'founding-fathers') including the animalia-conscious Philadelphia Zoo(!). Of course, He-Man and Battlecat did not transform into their mystic-warrior alter-egos, so they would 'blend in' with humanity. He-Man was after all human in appearance. He-Man/Battlecat realized that the Philadelphia Zoo was a 'haven' for animals more or less ravaged by the activities of modern man.
He-Man and Battlecat decided to speak with U.S. President Donald Trump who happened to be at the Philadelphia Zoo that summer day. Trump was walking around the zoo with a CNN entourage explaining that modern-day American enterprise and funding was conducive to all kinds of lifestyle-energizing Earth-minded 'activities' (such as the care and housing of our planet's many animals!). He-Man/Battlecat walked up to Trump's entourage and began clapping (so as to cheer on the general optimism). However, He-Man asked the American President directly, "Does capitalism create too much 'profit-hypnosis'?" to which Trump coldly replied, "Without profits, there can be no infrastructure, young man!" He-Man concluded that money was very valuable to Earth indeed.
He-Man/Battlecat decided to return to their realm of Eternia and reported to their elders what they discovered about Earth/America. He-Man explained that America's 'capitalism-system' created many 'levels' of funding/resource discussions and that social leaders were very busy coordinating assets with human interests and ambitions. He-Man also explained that Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (USA) was a pluralism-rich city where the historic Declaration of Independence was signed and where many citizens cheered on the spirited professional and collegiate sports-teams (MLB Phillies, NHL Flyers, NBA 76ers, NFL Eagles, Penn State Nittany Lions college football, Villanova Wildcats college basketball, UPenn fencing-team). He-Man also added that the Philadelphia Zoo was the East Coast's 'beacon' for Earth-conscious education (paralleling the San Diego Zoo in the West Coast --- California!).
GOD: It seems He-Man/Battlecat learned about capitalism!
SATAN: They sure did; capitalism is about coordinating profits.
GOD: Piracy is a real problem; as is terrorism.
SATAN: Yes; He-Man remains idealistic that America fosters optimism.
GOD: Battlecat liked the Philadelphia Zoo!
SATAN: Yes, he was impressed at the level of 'infrastructure-investment.'
GOD: It's a nice coincidence that President Trump was at the Zoo too.
SATAN: Indeed; Americans have made lots of 'social-consciousness' statements.
GOD: Trump has been criticized for biased statements made in the media.
SATAN: Americans love shock-value chatter (e.g., American History X).
GOD: The American sci-fi horror-film Alien: Covenant symbolizes evolution paranoia.
SATAN: Capitalism creates a great deal of 'teamwork angst.'
GOD: Perhaps He-Man/Battlecat concluded that America is a 'lighthouse.'
SATAN: I agree; however, mankind remains 'anxious' about teamwork.
GOD: That's where the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) can evangelize.
SATAN: We'll see...
