> More so, do you think Hitler was unhappy?

Yes, he killed himself in the end. If the question is whether he was always unhappy, well, I'm sure there were happy points in his life.

Negative happiness. For Hitler, being captured alive and utterly humiliated in front of the world's jury as it were, must have been a prospect too horrible to contemplate. Happiness with a coefficient of -10 as against maybe -5 immediately prior to death by poison + gunshot. His and probably everybody else's choice and as in his case, something for dictators to ponder.
