    bruce wayne does in fact fight crime with money too. But it’s not enough, so he also needs to be the batman.

      Yeah? What exactly does he spend on that diminishes the underlying causes of crime?

      Does he provide housing for the unhoused?

      Does he provide food for the food insecure?

      Does his company provide a livable wage and reasonable benefits for every employee?

      Does the hospital his dad worked at provide care that is free at the point of service?

      Does he provide for schools with no cops to initiate the middle school to prison pipeline?

      Does he pay for high quality pro bono legal aid for those who would otherwise be steamrolled by representatives of a system that incentivizes convictions regardless of guilt?

      Or does he just cut a check to a Dickensian orphanage once in a while?
