I second to that, that's why I stayed away from porn when I was freelancing... had some bad experiences programming for adult so I kept my distance.
I like when tons of people are like "tried so many freelancers and they all suck", well not all the freelancers in the world suck so if you are picking all the wrong people maybe, just maybe it may be you. Reflect on what you did in the entire process, from outlining the job to the selection process and what may have gone wrong then try something different next time. Think of it like making SEO if you mess up a site and it gets penalized by search engines you won't try the same s**t on your other sites now would you;
What I am saying is that you have to do your part, even if the freelancer was a total crap - you picked him, didn't you, so you have yourself to blame at least for that, next time try picking freelancers more carefully.
If it happened to me to get a bad client my attitude wasn't like "all the clients are idiots", but "how didn't I see this one is an idiot, have to try harder next time"
And finally, yeah some countries like india, bangladesh etc have abundance of incompetent freelancers but is not a rule, I hated being teamed up or continuing project started by indians because the chances are they will suck, but I got surprised several times. If you know how to select properly you won't pick an idiot regardless from which country he/she comes from.
