Is joining a credit union an irrational way of handling the impulse to
hide my money under a mattress?

It's insured by a gov't agency, the FDIC. If that fails, I think we'll have larger problems (of the "fleeing over the border in the night" sort). My bank failed/was taken over last week and I haven't had any problems accessing my money, despite my fears of same. (I am moving things to my union's credit union, though.)
