It's amazing how you didn't even read the thing you quoted evidently:
What do you think" exercise of the right of individual or collective self-defence" and "such action as it deems necessary, including the use of armed force" means exactly?
It means that individual countries get to decide the level of support they provide ranging from nothing to getting involved militarily.
US aims to go from making 14,000 155mm shells each month to 20,000 by the spring and 40,000 by 2025. This is the amount of shells Russia uses per day in Ukraine.
And of course, the problem for US is the state of its industry you can't just create factories, supply chains, and trained workers out of thin air the way you print money.
It's pretty clear that people who believed all the bullshit before the war have learned absolutely nothing throughout the war.
