> labor organizers represent labor.

Unions claim to represent labor, but due to a confluence of laws, there's no guarantee that they actually do, as pointed out above. Even within a union, politics exists, and those who are influential and important are able to extract resources away from those who are viewed as dispensible.

You last sentence is true for any human organization. Politics exist and those with power sometimes take from those who don’t.

That includes unions.
