We all get the same raises

For the past two years, I have been rated as "Exceeds Expectations" on my annual reviews. I work hard and am very good at what I do. My question regards annual raises. My supervisor gets a "bucket" of funds available to distribute to his team as he sees fit. Since he would run a mile rather than have a confrontation with anyone, he gives everyone the exact same raise - even those who are rated "Below Expectations."

Am I crazy for thinking my raise should be higher than people who are not performing up to expectations? When I asked him about it, he said he was giving everyone the same pay increase because he "didn't want to make anyone feel bad." Not surprisingly, I feel bad!
