"All the World's Evils" by D. M. Larson

DOCTOR

You all have a problem and I have the cure.  

Don't you feel a great burden?  Don't you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders?  You feel like you have to deal with all the world's evils.  But I can change all that.  No more burdens.  No more worries.

Superheroes are the ultimate co-dependents.  Always looking for problems.  Never happy if there isn't a crisis.  Getting themselves involved with demanding citizens who don't appreciate them for who they are.  You can never do enough to please them. 

Let me be the hero now and I will fix all your  problems.

The weight of the world can be off your shoulders.  You can be happy again.

Have you changed the world?  Is it a better place?

Anyone can change the world.  You don't have to have superpowers.

I'm saying that ordinary people can make a difference in this world.

What about teachers, nurses, police officers?  They all make a difference.

It's time to get out of the hero business and let the 
world to solve their own problems.
