Some people object to their taxes being used to fund the military, should
they be allowed to opt-out of contributing to the defense budget? Obviously
No - because running the military is an explicitly enumerated task of
the Federal government in the Constitution, but libraries are not.

Actually, the Constitution only authorizes an Army and a Navy. There
is
no blanket authorization for a 'military', certainly none for any
branch that
is not part of one or the other (e.g. Air Force).

Regardless, neither can be funded for more than two years.

Noted. But my primary point is that there is NO provision for Federal
involvement in education.
