you seem (if i understand your argument) to be saying that human emotions work like simple linear graphs. they don't. it's been shown in a bunch of experiments that people are "hard wired" to expect equitable shares of resources. so you'd expect a maximum amount of "feeling good" when that occurs, not when extrapolated to some silly extreme.
