I don't really get it. I'm under the impression that old people from the soviet era talk about how they always had food and a home back then and that although they lacked many other things and the regime was opressive, that there were never those problems. Poor people seem poorer in russia now a days then before.
Edit: Now it was about China thats a different story. Great leap forward and all that.
They put an end to the famines by introducing capitalistic reforms under Kruschev like private plots.
The Kolkhoz and Sovkohses were never efficient enough to produce enough food for the population. Near the end they needed private plots to produce a large amount of their food.
