Plunging Morale and Population

from Stardock Forums
Class 22 - 15 worlds, 1.2 billion pop, nice weather, happy, productive folks ..... overnight, entire empire (every world) begins morale plunge which in 10 turns goes from 50s to 0; at 0 morale population has annihilated itself ie; pop = 0. Yes I research and build Entertainment systems, soil enhancements, etc. But the plunges continue. I have 1 alien world 10 sectors away with me having 14 worlds. Can't enjoy the game with this bug/feature?

Make sure you haven't gone negative in your economy. If you do, your morale will tank, as will production, etc.

Also, I tend to spend a lot on destabilization. I imagine that option is open to the AI also. If one or more of them are spending to destabilize you, it will be difficult to fight. If your economy is stonger, you might be able to beat them at this, but, if you're weaker, there might not be much you can do.

If the AI is trying to destabilize you, local propaganda can counter that to some degree. It's going to be rather expensive, though, so the best solution would probably be to find a way to make the AI unable to afford to destabilize you in some way.
