"Including the U.S. government as payment for debt."

So what exactly can I get from the US government in exchange for dollars? (I am not a US citizen).



If you're not a US citizen dollars are not meant to be held as a store of value and trade (although some outside the US actually do use them this way).

However, to answer your question directly you can get interest from the US government in exchange for dollars by buying US Treasury bonds.
