The main reason super man is better than batman is because superman is working class. There's no ethical way to be a billionaire, even if you inherit it.

Superman was born with power and recognizes that he doesn't deserve it so he tries to use that power to help people whenever he can.

Batman was also born with power but decided that that wasn't enough so he travelled the world acquiring more power and then returned home to use that power to enforce his will while wearing a mask to escape accountability.

Superman is an elite superhero who cosplays as working class

So elite he has trouble paying rent, sometimes.

The point of Superman is that he could BE the most elite being on the planet, but chooses instead to give himself to those who need it most

The second thing he ever did was throw a wife-beater through a wall
