The Republicans are convinced that they know what is best for this country -- and they refuse to compromise on that belief. It does not matter to them that they are at odds with the majority of Americans, because to them those people don't matter. The only people that matter to a Republican are those who are rich enough to donate to their re-election campaigns. That is why they want to cut everything except corporate subsidies, and want to lower taxes on the rich in the midst of all the cutting.
