I fail to understand why any economist would prefer QE over helicopter money. Give everyone a check. If they need it to purchase everyday goods and services, great. If their everyday needs are fulfilled already, they will invest that money into stocks, bonds, treasuries, etc, adding the needed liquidity to the market.

I understand if you're against the idea of giving people money. But this is just giving money to mostly the rich. Neo-trickle down economics.
