It is not racists to oppose Biden's goofy high density housing scheme for suburbs

NY Times:

Trump Plays on Racist Fears of Terrorized Suburbs to Court White Voters

President Trump painted a false picture of suburbs under siege, saying he was protecting them from low-income housing, as he seeks to win over white voters who were key to his 2016 victory.
This is another example of how the left tries to turn issues into "racism." The opposition to Biden's suburban scheme is that it does away with single-family homes pushing everyone into high-density housing and takes away people's freedom to choose what kind of community they want to live in. 

The scheme is also designed to push people into high-density public transportation.  This is after the pandemic has shown both changes would be pandemic disease spreaders as they were in New York City. 

The Obama-Biden scheme is to do away with single-family zoning.  I have not heard Trump or any other opponent of the scheme mention race in their defense of the current zoning rules.  In fact, people cannot be excluded from buying one of those homes because of race.

Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
