Until as Latter Day Saints we are ready we should not move forward with something like this or it could be opened up to serious corruption, which can in turn damage the church

Actually, this argument has been around for a long time, in Jewish society. There are the Zionists (who believe that Israel must be built up) and Anti-Zionists (Who believe a variety of things, but the only really -relevant- belief is that God would reveal it if it were time to retake the holy land).
What's the answer? I don't know. I agree with A-train that the world aches for some kind of freedom from economic and spiritual bondage, but I agree with you that the brethren would tell us when that time is.
