He owns the company, he has invested his time, effort and money into the company. I think it is completely fair that if feels its not going to be worth the time, effort or money. It is his call if he wants to scale back or shutdown the company.

Absolutely.

But it's also a straightforward breach of both regular and business ethics to attempt to use one's position of authority to intimidate one's employees into voting a particular way.

And it's just plain incontinent to issue a letter like that, considering that both Obama and Romney are planning to cut the corporate tax rate. By about the same amount, too.
