"take out" NZ and do what with it? 4 million people. Small area. Far from anything, barred NZ itself...

If I'd be the Americans I would take Brazil. Make it the 52 state. See what they would get:
.
Much more resources.
Stretch north South which means one can grow anything there.
Increased the GDP by 20%
Increase population to half billion at a single go.
Sanitized bank system.
200 billion of USD reserves.
Winning football national team
Much bigger.
Close to home
Only we would not accept to inherit all that debt.
