Why doesn't Bruce Wayne go into politics?

He's one of the most famous and popular men in Gotham with enough charm to get elected mayor. Why doesn't he? He can't be bribed because he's already loaded. He would do a lot more good that way.

Because he foolishly thinks that he does more good for the common man as Batman than he would by working in a legitimate fashion.

He could hook the cops up with Bat-gear, give Arkham a total makeover, improve the infrastructure of Gotham, and have more to spare. He doesn't because he believes that he's one of the few people in the city that make a difference. He doesn't see that Batman causes as many problems as he solves.

Remember, he went back in time, traveled through centuries, came back to life, and felt that the best thing he could do was create a Bat-franchise. Train and gear up a very few vigilantes to fight crime in a few cities, not help police, fire fighters, or the military. Metropolis has the Science Police. In Marvel, New York had Code BLUE. They had funding, gear, and training to take down supervillains.

Gotham has no such force because they can't afford it. And the guy who could would rather strap on a cape and scare a few crooks than pump his money into rehabilitation programs and supplying *official* law enforcement personnel with the gear to make Batman unnecessary.

Really, he feels that *he* personally has to make the difference.
