And because Superman would have to go all Red Son to actually achieve those goals, because humans are twats.

I don’t see Clark going Red Son to achieve said goals though. I honestly see humans actually welcoming him if he chose to end crimes in the world. There’s a few humans of course-Luthor, Savage that would oppose him-but the second he gets serious, and shows the World their evil ways, humans would understand. Especially if he ends world hunger, and cure all known diseases.

I see your point, I just don't agree that it would work. Have you ever read the Peace on Earth or For Tomorrow series? They deal with that exact thing.
I'd like to believe humans would get their act together if Superman offered them all those benefits, I just don't see it happening.

I would like to agree with you, but then I look at the state of the world as it is right now, and I'm not so sure.
Superman not solving world hunger isn't the same as, say, nobody executing The Joker.
