Only if you agree, that you move into a unpopulated area, that the nuclear power plants are built in your garden, that everything is paid by you and you also take care of the waste. Thank you.

I'd be happy to live near a nuclear plant and waste disposal. Why not? It sure would beat living downwind of a coal power plant like many of us do now.

It is a well-known and fully solved problem of how to deal with nuclear waste. The reason it is not dealt with is purely political, at least in the United States: an anti-science Senator who was pandering to anti-science constituents in his state by killing the waste disposal site.
