Why did public protests against President Reagan's cut to social programs fail to impact public policy?

The answer to this requires the name of a specific social program. And, most importantly the term "cut" must be defined. That is because there is sometimes confusion between a cut in funding a social program, the elimination of a social program or a cut in the request for a specific increase in funding a social program. The latter instance perhaps requires an example. If the US Congress, for example, votes to increase the annual payout of Social Security benefits by 6%, and the US president wishes to have that increase to be only 3%,, proponents of the 6% increase will say the US president wants to "cut" spending on Social Security in half. That would be a distortion of reality.

What happened that led to budget cuts?

This depends on the country you're living in. If you are referring to the United States, one of the major reasons why the unemployment benefits have been cut is due to what is now known as the budget crisis. The United States has been spending trillions of dollars it does not technically have and now has massive, crippling debt. The Government is starting to realize the dire situation, and is taking action to cut spending. Unfortunately, the bulk of the Government's spending comes from social programs, like welfare and unemployment. These two areas will continue to see massive cuts to balance the nation's checkbook.
