I've heard (or maybe read?) a quote to the effect that the US dollar is one of the top things that America exports.

It's a great business to be in: "The U.S. government has a technology, called a printing press (or today, its electronic equivalent), that allows it to produce as many U.S. dollars as it wishes at no cost." (Ben Bernanke)
The problem comes with such "business" perhaps not having great staying power.
