Archie doesn't just want you to have a good time, he wants you to partay:

Archie Comics PSA 02: I don't need drugs...

Aside from making sure that the next generation doesn't do drugs Archie also wants to motivate them to better things in life. Archie taunts poor children dependent on subsidized lunches, with images of free time, money for pizza, dancing and streamers. This is for their own good though, by showing them the good life and deepening the disenchantment with their current life these children will aspire to a better life and work hard for it, thereby ending the cycle of poverty.

I don't want to be the wet washcloth, so I am really hesitant to point this out: if Archie cared so much about these kids futures he'd kick some money into vocational programs, basic health care, and housing programs.
