I design equipment for the military, so ultimately U.S. taxpayers keep me employed. And I suppose citizens of foreign nations purchasing U.S. debt also keep me employed, in a slightly more indirect fashion. I think that covers pretty much everything from rich to poor.

I work for a utility company. So I am pretty sure we serve everyone (although the lower income ones don't pay as much - but we get LIHEAP (tax) dollars to cover that).

I have four part-time jobs to keep my head above water. 1. My customer is mentally handicapped people who need help in their homes to live independently outside of an institution. Probably low income. 2. Run a small baking business from my home...probably serve low to middle income people...I price things very reasonable so everyone can have a treat once in awhile. This is good for my karma, and I love to help people out. 3. Working seasonally at H&R Block as a receptionist...low to middle income customers. 4. Sell my plasma occasionally for extra $; I think the end user would be people needing blood transfusions and research facilities. I'm kind of lost on what income level they would be.

Our company partners with small businesses, some large and others just mom & pop type shops. So we do business with all income levels. This has become much more apparent since the recession as those smaller companies are in a constant struggle.

Anyone who drinks from a plastic bottle could be my end customer, so I had to choose all.

When times are good, people drink. When times are bad, people drink...more! I'd like to propose a toast.....Here's to you for keeping me gainfully employed.

Everyone! We all need to eat and drink, right?
