Saving money vs. American Economy crashing.?

So I'm a child of the baby boomer's generation of America, and I can't help buy worry that given the current state of our economy my money will soon become worthless because:

1. America has the largest deficit in history.
2. Highest rate of debt to other nations.
3. All the money that will be needed to fund Iraq.
4. Bankruptcy is at it's highest rate ever.
5. Credit is as well.
6. Foreign competition in the job market as laws and regulations possibly become more lenient.

I feel stupid for worrying about this, but honestly, what's the best place to store money in given the current situation? Stock? mutual fund? CDs? Savings? Overseas account? <-is that even legal?

Gold. It's the only world currency. It is not based on one countries currrency going up and down. The USD is falling rapidly. In the last 6 years, Gold has gone from around $250 to $650 an ounce. No matter the dollar's decline or gain, Gold will be worth the value you originally purchased it for. It's outperformed the housing market. It out performed the Euro. It's the safest investment you can buy.

I don't know but if our markets crash and our money is worthless doesn't that mean that you stock in the market is blown too.
I feel like bad news bunny tonight for some reason.
