And when you say public funds pay for something i'll just assume you mean they chip in a little bit. Where i'm from public funding actually covers the whole thing and then pays you on top of that to go to a university.
I don't know what you're talking about.

Right wing professors are not hired at public universities because the people doing the hiring are left wing themselves.

Public funding contributes a large portion of the tuition and other expenses at state universities. Students are not given any money to go to the university (or for expenses), unless they are on some form of financial aid, and usually those are just loans.
So the markets have decided then. There's nothing to cry about it. If enough students cared about it, all those universities would cease to exist. Your public universities couldn't stay operational with current or historic levels of public funding. Students (or their parents) have voted with their wallets again and again.
