Every +5% in Happiness causes -0,1% and every -5% in Happiness causes 0,1% change in anger level.

Sounds like you tested this thoroughly but that ratio sounds awfully low to me. Raising your happiness characteristic to 20% would not even come close (only.4%) to counter-acting the 2% natural anger increase of alien races. Seems modifying your your happiness upward would be a waste of points, yet it has always paid dividends for me.

Perhaps I am reading you wrong; my experience says its better than this.

You're reading perfectly right and I agree, the ratio is very low. You can test it: even if you have 150% in happiness you're own people still become indifferent.

I made another test with 250% in happiness. The result was that my people became jubiliant in 11 turns. 2% (natural decrease) - 3% (race bonus) = -1%. 11 turns -> 25% - 11 * 1 = 14 -> jubiliant.
