I've yet to see someone who thinks they will meltdown. Most people I've spoke too do not think that any agency can be responsible for a toxic material warehousing for the next how ever many centuries. Its not like this stuff generates any profits just sitting there.

Nuclear waste is a problem we've got some good headway on. Our current reactors suck, but there are reactor designs to allow fuel reenrichment and some reactor models that consume waste and exhaust it to the point of being essentially safe to handle. In the grand scheme of things consumer reactor waste isn't a serious problem... most of the awful waste issues come from military reactors like those on aircraft carriers and submarines.
