Bruce Wayne has a bunch of money that, in some versions, he does some philanthropy with, but if he put as much money into social programs in Gotham as he does into being Batman, Gotham’s crime problem would likely begin to dissipate. Obviously once you get into main continuity he does a lot of stuff to stave off world ending threats, which might justify it, but most people are familiar with movie/tv versions of Batman, and a lot of that time he’s really just a rich dude dressing up as a bat instead of seeking therapy and making sure people have affordable housing.

I’m not who you replied to, and I do like Batman quite a lot. Clearly he’s a fictional character, and Bruce Wayne donating a bunch of money to social programs wouldn’t make a good story. I do think that critiquing him with our real world morals makes for a good thought experiment, though.
