The President Passes the Buck

In all the talk about the newly released federal budget from the White House, an unsurprising (but wholly irresponsible) fact has become known: the President intends to pass the buck yet again by making the bulk of the budgetary deficits come into play after he's out of office.

    The other thing that sucks about his budget is the limitations he's placing on Pell Grants and his elmination of Perkins Grats, both of which are federal loans meant to help low-income or first-generation college students.
