1) Tech has improved, meltdowns are near-impossible now with alternatives to depleted uranium being developed. It happens very rarely and it literally goes off with a bang, which news media loves to report, that's why people are so afraid of it.
Car crashes happen every second, yet we accept them as normal. Plane crashes are very, very rare, but lots of people are afraid to fly for that reason, despite air travel being many, many times safer than cars.
Same issue here- meltdowns are big and scary, yet no one bats an eyelash at the number of people dead from black lung or explosions. Nuclear isn't actually less safe, human psychology just isn't rational.
2) The waste is a good thing- I think I'd prefer having to decide where to put it then watch it all dissipate into our air (coal, oil, natural gas). The waste is compact and we can store it. It's infinitely easier to manage than fumes.
