France doesn't have problems with spent nuclear fuel, because they
use breeder reactors. We should, too.
The problems with waste are slowly being solved, even without breeders.
But you make a good point. However, I would prefer it if the
breeders were in the arid Southwest deserts, and not at Hanford.*

since the eighties, IIRC. We aren't even producing any plutonium right
now, we prefer to buy it from the Russians (which is okay with me, I
guess. Better in our power plants than in their nuclear weapons, I say.)
