building collapsed in india. it happened last night just northeast of human buy. authorities say it happened at a building under construction and people were illegally living inside. rescue crews were searching through the rubble in hopes of finding anyone alive. they think the collapse could be due to poor construction. we are hearing about what president obama is prepared to offer republicans to try and get a compromise on deficit reduction. political reporter jamie dupree joins us from washington d.c. there's work word the president is willing to make cuts to social security. you're saying these aren't really cuts right? >> it's the age old thing, as you look at it tori. some people will call it a cut. it's an effort to reduce the level of increase in government benefits. this is known as chain cpi, and it has a lot of ops session in democratic circles and liberal circles in congress and across the country. it's a new way to figure out

how much benefits should go up each year for cost of living adjustments, for inflation. a lot of people say this is a better representation of what the actual increase should be, and it's a little lower. it would save ultimately when you add it up about $200 billion plus over ten years, and so that would mean less money going out the door. a lot of people say it's cut because people won't get as much in benefits as they otherwise would have gotten. realistically it's holding down the level of increase, look for people to call it a cut. it's part of the obama budget that will be rolled out next week. it was leaked out this morning and clearly a leak to major news organizations. the deal is this. the white house says we'll back this idea which a lot of liberal groups don't like. republicans you have to accept tax increases as a way to deal with budget shortfalls elsewhere. as of this point in time republicans not interested in that. >> the president seems to be making a concerted effort to try and win republican support. he's scheduled a dinner with

republican lawmakers on the evening his budget's going to be released. do we see any kind of compromise or movement at this point? >> at this point i think democrats are hoping to peel off a few republicans who might support a larger brand bargain. i think there's a lot of gop lawmakers especially in the house and a pretty strong group in the senate that want absolutely no part of any tax increases. they don't want to support anything that even looks like a tax increase, and so i don't know that the middle ground is there, though certainly you're going to hear from the president about it. i think probably the reaction of republicans will be this tori, they'll take the cpi and put it in their budget plan in the house of representatives and try to move that along and not includes any of the tax increases president obama wants. republicans are looking at a plan to reform the tax code, but i would look for that to be revenue neutral. it won't raise any income after they make the different changes. >> it looks at this point unlikely that a compromise will be reached, so then what

happens? >> yeah, then what happens, then we go into the usual battle of what happens with the budget next year. i don't know that the two sides really have any middle ground. it may just be we'll be locked in this struggle and not have anything happen then on this front, but i guess i looked back to 1986, i remember back then when we had the same kind of situation. back then we had one party in charge of the house and the other part in charge of the senate and white house. temperatures republicans running -- it was republicans running the senate, ronald reagan was in the white house and democrats ran the house. the last time we had tax reform, we shouldn't write it off, though it certainly won't be an easy thing to get. >> way back to 1986. all right. joining us live from washington d.c. >> don't make me feel bad for it okay. >> thank you jamie. you can find a link to his blog on our web site ktvu.com,. one of the biggest health

insurance companies in the country is telling brokers how they can get around requirements of the new affordable care act. etna insurance sent an e-mail to agents saying they could get around mandates if they renew current health plans before january 1st. that could include the ban on preexisting conditions and charging higher rates for older people and women. other insurance insurance companies are considering doing the same thing. a new survey finds growing support for the legalization of marijuana. according to the nationwide research poll 52% say marijuana should be legal. that's compared to 45 percent who say it should not. support is up a strong 11 points since 2010. it's 7:19. if it sounded like the demand for a college degree by a massachusetts mcdonald's was unusual that's because it was. earlier reports say the restaurants were asking for a bachelor's degree and two years experience to be a cashier. now the franchise owner of that restaurant says the job posting

things have been going pretty well. we haven't heard a lot of things tori and brian about the problems at the bridge when it comes to traffic. it's been moving along just as it normally does. let's take a look at what we have now with 80 westbound. it looks pretty good heading out to the mcarthur maze. the traffic continues to look good to the bay bridge toll plaza a little backup but only at the metering lights. the big trouble has been in hayward. a motorcycle crash southbound 880 at winton. it took a while to get it out of the way. traffic is still slow according to the road sensors to highway 92. and a very good morning, mostly cloudy skies, a few sun breaks in there, south bay especially. lots of reports of drizzle, hayward being one, oakland, santa rosa, napa, also on the coast, half-moon bay, el grenada. it looks like this is starting to lift a little bit. we have a lot of low clouds,

partly sunny for first pitch today. 60 degrees game time temp. there's a lot of low clouds really kind of just hugging the coast, and then some higher clouds are inching closer. even partly sunny. i'm being optimistic, probably some mostly cloudies later on. yesterday's rain is out of the picture, but it left behind a lot of low clouds and very, very muggy humid conditions, 30s in the mountains, but everywhere else 50s and 60s. overall the higher clouds on their way. this is a much weaker system than the one we just had be it will give us a lot of cloud cover and light rain. i think the north bay late tonight, tomorrow morning and drizzle again on the coast. the weekend's shaping up to be like that. these are weak systems cruising along through northern california. we're close enough south bay, probably too far south for anything to happen but north bay light rain saturday morning and again on sunday. very weak systems. light range drizzle in the morning.

a couple areas picking up 1/10 of an inch or more. it wouldn't take, too much sun to get you into the low 70s. closer to the coast and around the bay 60s, but it will feel mild and muggy. not much change for the weekend, partly sunny to mostly cloudy, some occasional light drizzle or rain clearing on monday. tuesday wednesday looking sunny and much warmer. thank you steve. it is 8:08. we have following breaking news in san jose. police are on the scene of a shooting that happened just over 30 minutes ago. ktvu janine dell la vega is on the scene and tells us a car pulled up to a man and fired shots. janine. >> tori we're still trying to piece this together because we just arrived on scene. we're on white rote and mount mckinley where you see a heavy heavy police presence. they have put up tape near this home. i spoke to a sergeant who said they received a 9-1-1 call from this home. a woman said my son is shot.

we know so far. reporting live. time now is 8:10. recent gun control legislation has inspired an ammunition buying frenzy. yesterday connecticut's governor signed into law tough new gun restrictions in response to the school shot shooting in newtown. gun enthusiasts have reportedly been buying up guns and boxes of ammo. gun shops are selling out across the country sparked by false rumors that the government is hoarding bullets. san mateo county is holding a gun buyback next saturday. this is video of the latest bay area gun buyback held a couple of weeks ago in santa clara county. next weekend's buyback is held at the south san fransisco courthouse. it will offer $100 for handguns and $200 for assault weapons. if you attend the event police would like the weapons unloaded and in the trunk of cars. if is 8:11. a school bus full of elementary schools overturned. this happened near chicago. the new information we've
