How long has it been since a budget was passed?

you answered your own question, your source is right wing and biased--and is not credible. And when was the last balanced budget and which president did it? And you lie when you say the senate didn't vote on a budget--they voted on ryans budget plan and it FAILED. Next up is a vote for increasing the debt ceiling, which, if it fails, will result in total global chaos--something i'm sure you'll be proud of. Then, of course, you can watch all your social security dependent family members suffer.

he wants to raise it to 60% by 2020. This means he wants our country to have the highest number of graduates. Don't get me wrong college is good for some but what about other jobs.
