The only problem with natural controls is when the system that sets 
up the controls (human society at this historical moment) is not 
operating naturally, then the controls favors one part of the 
population and not others from the get go.

Besides, from a biological point of view, humans redefine nature and 
then the point of view expressed by Rick (whom I have the greatest 
respect for) has little meaning.
