Handmade cloth napkins. Very boring sewing, but so practical. If they're made from scraps, there's no monetary outlay. Once you have them, you never need to buy paper napkins. Wash them with kitchen towels.

If Basic Income existed, it would be easier to abolish prisons, many military projects, and unnecessary law enforcement. People would not be dependent on these jobs to survive.
