The word is bootlicker. There are of course bad union leaders, and the cure is the same: organizing.

Yeah, unions are a democracy. If you don't like the leadership get off your ass.

Hell, syndicalists saw this problem over a century ago. They came up with a different solution, not finding how many boots needed tongue polishing.

Who organizes the organizers?
