Its not random, they are enforced by the states armed forces. And such money would buy you things and would be tradable with other countries at a real rate of exchange.
The silly rock called Macroeconomica cant create US dollars, but lets say it creates silly Macroeconomica Dollars, these would be worthless in any exchange and since Macroeconomica itself has zero goods to sell, they are worth 0.
But more to the point, say i give you a dollar and you give it back to me and we repeat this a million times. If you were to try this in real life, you'd have to pay income tax on that million dollars of reported income, because you wont, you wont attempt this gimmick.
The whole purpose of these statistics is to facilitate taxation.
