I disagree. Soviets were busy recovering from WW2 for decades while funding own allies. They were not in the position to splurge on non necessities.

But even with that - they supplied entire population with oil, gas, electric no problems. Utilities barely cost anything even in modern russia

In the USSR, private plots owned by collective farm families, averaging 0.25 hectares in area, provided 30% of meat, vegetables and milk, 33% of eggs, and 59% of potatoes in 1979.

No problems? I think some of the citizens that lived through the Soviet era would disagree with you there
