what use is the gold if the US economy collapses? Whose gold would it be if the gov't falls over?
It kind of works if you have a place to run off too, but nobody in the federal government can just go take the gold and hide for a bit. The incentives are aligned so that the gov't does "the right thing" (stem the fall)
