Sounds to me that workers will lose if the average wage drops from $13 to $8.50.

Unions lose. Consumers gain. How do you argue with that?

Not so. If the work from these $13/hr employees is really worth $13, and someone can deliver quality grocery service to customers at $8.50/hr, then their skills are currently underemployed. Time for them to get out of the grocery business and find a new niche in which to serve the consumer marketplace which will fully utilitize and benefit from these workers' $13/hr skills. We all win!
