because it cant be used again Answer: Fissionable materials are a limited resource (there is only so much uranium etc. that we can recover) When this resource is used up all fission powered plants will essentially run out of fuel. In good fission processes the spent fuel is taken and reprocessed to recover new potentially fissionable elements as well as radioactive isotopes for medical and other uses.
