We lack a strong enough government to logicly use and dispose of nuclear waste. Once Obama declares himself our rightfull King we will seeower:Hey, hey, hey...they'll be none of that!!! We have our own waste to get rid of.
In all seriousness, the Canadian shield is one billion years old, I'm sure the idea of drilling down a long way and sealing the waste up would work. Though if I lived in a nearby community? No chance would I allow it in my backyard.
