17. Did the Soviet Union typically have supply shocks.

A supply shock is what has happened when the supply of a good is quickly cut off. In the case of the potential shortages the supply shock is caused by not being able to get oil transported because of the damage caused by the storm.

FYI: In the Soviet Union shortages were caused by production not being able to adequately meet demand at the costs being charged.
