How would one best protect against a US collapse? Would shares of gold mining stock like GOLD, AU, etc. and maybe WEBS like EWL, EWU, EWG be safe enough and hedge against dollar devaluation? Or would an account at e-gold (http://www.e-gold.com/) be better? Or a box of grenades?

Prazeres, I for one will gain from a market collapse as my bonds will rally. Not to mention the the hidden inflation in NYC will dissipate. The best think that can happen to the US economy is a drop of 3500 to 5000 DJIA. People will start to work again and be real productive. BWDIK Haim
