If USA defaults, stock market collapses 30%, GDP down 5%

I think the dollar will go up -- perversely--if the USA defaults because whenever there is risk and uncertainty, investors like CHF, JPY, USD... it's funny: the US defaults and the dollar goes up... anyone remember Lehman collapsing and the dollar shooting up to $1.25 for 1 Euro? I wouldn't be surprized if this happend again.
