How is this related to currency?

I'm not an economist. But I'm pretty sure a culture of stealing each other and not paying taxes is somehow related.
Not paying taxes is the opposite of stealing IMO. It is the taxing that is theft.
Exchange rates are indirect measures of the country's production vs. others. ex: 1 usd is worth more because its population has a higher output (GDP) relative to Argentina
