Same in the UK. My grandparents lived in public housing for most of their lives - it was a logical active choice for them, too.

Yeah; I grew up in UK public housing during the 80/90s--same period it was being simultaneously sold off and its remaining (increasingly minority) occupants demonized. Good, short exposition on this in Andrew O'Hagan's the London Review of Books monster piece on Grenfell Tower.

I always wonder if the Democrats just positioned themselves as racist, could they get the progressive policies they want. Clearly making social policies punitive against minorities is the winning political move for th GOP. Maybe that doesn’t need to be true, just said.

Considering the trillions spent on it since the 1960's your narrative does not compute. If you look at the history of the federal budget, the spending on this is at least 4 orders of magnitude higher than in 1950, even accounting for inflation.
