I think President Hinckley's comments on men becoming Gods could also apply to a literal gathering of the Saints to Missouri. Sure, it has been taught in the past, but "I don't know that we teach it. I don't know that we emphasize it."

No, I don't think normal members would get that excited about investment in Jackson County because from what I understand the church has already bought land in JC and the excitement is minimal.
Now if Monson gets up in GC and says "The Lord has spoken to me: we are to build Zion in Jackson County as prophesied by Joseph Smith, prophet, seer, and revelator." Well, yes, I think a lot of people would get excited.
