If helicopter money is the next step after 0 to negative interest rates, the stock market may be a pretty good deal right now.

Get paid a lot more money, receive double digit gains on your retirement account year after year -- and be completely fucked in the process, ironically, because prices went up even faster and its more profitable to simply hoard things than sell them.

People QE seems to be the very last thing they want to do, which I think really tells a story here.

Considering the money the government is still pumping into the market directly, I don't think people QE will have the same effect. It really depends on how it's executed though.
