I used to feel the same way (specifically around the Fed and Treasury and national debt) - until I realized, it's just a number on a screen. They print dollars as easily as you and I print from our local printer. The digits are all are meaningless - we're never going to pay back the amounts, or our national debt. We're just going to print and inflate, and pay back any old sums with numbers we just printed.
