Although, seeing as the US has a big army and also stores much of the world's gold, it could feasibly nick someone else's gold and then say 'wanna fight about it?' Unlikely to happen though, unless some loony Republican wingnut gets into office.
Sorry, that last sentence wasn't really very reassuring was it?
Default is of course the answer, but not until they have borrowed as much as the markets will bear firs and bought gold with it.
