Oakland will give low-income families of color $500 a month, no strings attached

I don't see how this is legal. Two people can be equally poor, but if you're black you get $500 a month, but if you're white or Asian you don't get anything?

Maybe I am mistaken but I don&#x27;t think the city can give away money and call it non-taxable. The state sets income tax laws as does the federal government. Even if CA as a state decided not to tax it, doesn&#x27;t mean the federal government couldn&#x27;t or wouldn&#x27;t tax it.<p>Is there something I am missing?
