Nuclear power plants to make very ugly waste, and its hard to find people willing to take it.
Also it(the waste and the plants to lesser degree than the waste) makes a wonderful target for terrorists.
Sure you can suggest reasonable solutions for both problems - but unless you are going to enact the solutions before you build more plants its a its BAD solution, no matter what you name it.
And thanks to various special interest groups I dont see the solutions being firmly in place for a long time.
Personally I think rather than waste a huge amount of money and time convincing people nuclear power is safe, we ought to convince them to use less energy.
