No we shouldn't be pissed off, the government is NOT a company, there are often goals well beyond making money (something the government can't really do anyways since they control the monetary supply so them making money is really just a contraction of credit elsewhere in the system) these include promoting domestic manufacturing, advancing the state of the art, pushing a technology over the early adopter price curve, etc.
