I bet that if we add the running costs of those military assets to the 300 million dollars, we end up with a waaaay higher amount. I don't know what it costs to keep a warship running, but it has to be a *lot* of money.
But then I feel that people should STFU about the amount of money being donated - after all, the US could have chosen not to give anything at all. It's not like the people hit by this disaster somehow "deserve" US aid. Those 350 million could have been used elsewhere, to help US taxpayers, but instead the US gives it to those most in need. It's given out of kindness, and any amount is better than none.
