They have tried to, but the GOP doesn't give a damn about fiscal sanity. All they want to do is spend, spend, throw grandma off the cliff and spend some more.
Also numerous budget bills have past, if they didn't, the government would shut down.

The lack of a concurrent budget resolution is not the same as the lack of a budget. The concurrent budget resolution, which is what has not been passed, is a tool within the federal budget process, not the budget itself.
