If you were to measure a nation's standard of living by the quantity of products and services its citizens enjoy relative to the citizens of other nations, I would venture to guess that the U.S. would be at the top of this list by a very wide margin. Even many people living at the poverty line in this country own things like cars, home electronics, satellite dishes, computers, etc. in numbers that exceed most of the world's countries.
Japan remains an export economy, by the way.
Which makes sense if their largest customer is the United States (or any other country above them on the list I provided). What makes this a little fuzzy is the way exports/imports may be tallied in Japan and the United States. A Toyota that is manufactured in Ohio and sold in California may be counted as a Japanese "export" even though it was built by U.S. labor and never left the United States.
