It's not a total loss.
My sister and I are paying in-state tuition at William & Mary and the University of Virginia, respectively. Both are excellent educational institutions, despite the liberal bias. Plus, we got top-notch high school educations at TJHSST in Alexandria, the top public science and tech magnet school in the entire Republic.
The illegals can't get any of that. Well, in theory they are eligible to attend TJHSST, except the incredibly difficult entrance test and application process (as selective as an Ivy League college) usually results in incoming freshmen who are either Asian or white.
As for in-state tuition and financial aid benefits, the Colleges and Universities here are fairly strict about legal presence...meaning no in-state tuition or financial aid for illegals!
