Yes "capitalism" is simply trade. That's why you can never actually get rid of it. You can only limit what is acceptable to trade or not. The most adherent "free market" ones would say you should be able to trade nuclear weapons, prostitution, slavery, etc.
The only difference is if it's the people able to participate in such trading, or if only the government is allowed to.
And here Mishima is just talking about the bastardization of language and loss of tradition, which has been going on in English for a long time now. If you check the Websters 1828 dictionary on some terms its like we are speaking two different languages.

I tried to look up 'nigger' and the text box turned red and redirected me to a suggestions page
You got me curious enough to look up the full text and it looks like it just hadn't been included yet.
That isn't the proper term, you have to look up negro for that.
