There is Some reasonability behind it. However this will happen slower rather than "poof" over night, the united states won't see this till the rest of Europe goes into unrecoverable economic diaster like Greece.
The united states will look more like Europe in a year or two, after that - then this senario will happen. When it does cash won't have value so it doesn't matter if you get it out of the bank ahead of time, all one can do is prep now.
Years worth of food for every member of your family.
Seed bank of your own.
Generators, solar power and or wind generation for you home.
Guns and ammo.
Paper back literature on how to garden and farm, repair machinery, make food, medical books, survival guides and so on. Build a library of useful knowledge.
Learn how to be self sufficient before you have no choice but to be so.
Live your life but prepare for everything and anything.
