Sure, there's a non-zero chance the US collapses but it's not anywhere close to 1% for any time horizon where stockpiling gold would be an urgent issue - there'll be plenty of time between the first warning signs and complete collapse. A nuclear holocaust is a lot more likely... maybe consider investing in a bunker?
I just can't imagine a scenario where the US collapses unexpectedly and you're escaping to another civilized country with gold in hand ready to start a new life.
