This analysis is pretty good. However it's only pretty surface level analysis. This would not be a problem if the author would have expressed that there are deeper levels on this film to pursue. This is Kubrick's most complex film. And because it's so complex, most don't even realize it.
One simple surface level example is that the woman in the mansion who sacrifices herself is not Mandy. When Bill asks Ziegler about Mandy, he says that she was the girl in the party, but he is lying/referring that Mandy was at Ziegler's house party. Ziegler most likely got her assassinated after that party. The woman in the mansion is someone else, played by a different actor.
So it seems that the woman who sacrificed her self, Mandy, Nick Nightingale, Domino, the guy who Milich replaced (Rainbow fashions guy) and possibly even the man who died in the beginning in sleep, were all murdered.
This film is filled with subliminal messages, couple simple examples are words PORN and SEX that can be found in Helena's bedroom, in the paintings she has made that are hanging on the wall.

Corporations are more dangerous than any drug empire, even if it's not illegal and has corporation running the operation. Why? Because the people are not fooled by economist, politicians or anybody, that the drug empire is good for everybody. Capitalism and communism both will have all the power in the hands of few interconnected people.
Freedom and free market are the best way to organize society, to a certain point. We can't allow psychopaths and sociopaths to gain power, or they will get it all eventually by having problems of doing all kinds of immoral things to rest of humanity. And also we cannot allow corporations to become bigger than certain point, or the laws of economics dictate what happens, aka the business becomes self driving psychopath that no human can control anymore. And also we have to find method that eliminates the fact that the more money you have, the higher interest you get.
So there are really big challenges, but also big possibilities ahead. The sad reality is that people are so easy to brainwash through "education" and media. But thank god there are examples in the media that show the truth, and Breaking Bad is one of the best examples.
