Batman’s goal is to create a Gotham where he is not needed.

Hard to do when he doesn’t fix the other issues in Gotham and he just beats up villains lol, man needs to use his wealth to influence politics for the better

He… does.

This is the “why didn’t the eagles fly to Mordor” of the batman universe.

Yes and there have been other comics in alternate universes that prove that if he did more he could get rid of crime in gotham
