We regulate MANY things that are also basic human freedoms.

Slums are not caused by overpopulation. They are caused by poverty and lack of opportunity, often abetted by bad government policy. Tiny countries with small populations have slums.
There are entire cities, one after the other, that are like one big slum. You can see for yourself on Google Earth etc.
Many of their problems are caused by overcrowdedness, and there are few ways to fix that without stealing even more space from nature and other species.
As for poverty and lack of opportunity, what do you propose would fix that? Honest question, because this will lead to more problems that need to be pointed out.
