Whats so funny August? As long as the dollar is the worldwide lead currency the US can control the prices for their imports / exports. The fact that many Euro-critics still not understand is that the Euro was meant as an instrument to become less dependent of US monetary policy. See it sportingly, Europe wants to stay competitive.
EDIT: If I would be a US citizen I would probably see the world like you - that the rest of the world is just paranoid about Uncle Sam. I'm sure you agree you have made out yourself quite a strong position - which is not a crime - but you have problems to imagine what it would be like without this base.
