You've seen it, in every fast food establishment you've ever been in: abuse of the free napkins. Sometimes the restaurants try to limit the abuse by not allowing free access to the napkins, but the louts of whom I complain simply keep going back to the counter to ask for more.
Since it's not likely that fast food establishments are going to have round the clock Bouncers/Enforcers, the next best thing, and a veritable slap in the face that Americans need, is for them NOT to provide napkins. Big signs would need to be put up announcing the new policy and with a spacious time frame for customers to prepare themselves.
Americans think they are entitled to free napkins, toilet paper (I'll wait on this one) free cream and sugar, salt and pepper, ketchup, and other condiments. We've created generations of 'gimme-gimme' people.
People will learn respect this way, for themselves and for others.
Hey, it's a start.

I personally never purchase condiments or napkins for my house, because who's got $2.83? Instead, I take a wheelbarrow into a fast food place and make out like a bandit, assuming bandits traveled with pockets full of honey mustard.
You could go to those places that use cloth napkins! Doubtful they have condiments though, most of those places refuse to put catsup on the table, some philistine might put some on the patte....heathens!
No napkins in Mickey-D's? I bet their Deluxe Breakfast would only cost $3.50 (because of the napkin-savings). Hence, you could order your senior Diet Coke for 49 cents (separately, of course), and pay a total of $3.99! (Give your unwanted coffee to the bum sitting outside hoping to start his day before noon.)
