    He’s the biggest charitable donator in Gotham right? Directly runs all kinds of homeless shelters and shit?

      Instead he should be paying higher taxes so the city/state can have more money to build a bigger and stronger social safety net instead of relying on the good will of the wealthy to take care of their problems. Maybe then they’d have less troubled people fucking shit up, if they can provide mental health care to people.

        Instead he should be paying higher taxes so the city/state can ~have more money to build a bigger and stronger social safety net~ funnel more money to the organized crime syndicates well known to operate at all levels of Gotham’s government.

        The city of Gotham has been shown to be very corrupt, so higher taxes may not exactly fix the issue. This was seen very heavily in the police department before and even during Gordon becoming police commissioner. This is why Gordon and a lot of the civilians embrace the Batman figure because he’s not corrupt.

        But unlike the billionaires we have he directly funds those security nets. Straight up runs all kinds of soup kitchens and homeless shelters and a bunch of different true charities not just tax write-off bullshit.

    Good old redditor take that doesn't explain anything in a snide way.

    This is explicitly how things are explained in Harley Quinn. The irony of it is that it’s Joker who points all this out.

      Ah yes, that completely serious and not at all satirical show Harley Quinn.

      The entire point of the show is to turn established Canon on its head and view it in another light.
