Germany's deputy finance minister has ruled out "eurobond-lite" plans to pool part of eurozone countries' debt.

Speaking exclusively to the BBC, Secretary of State Steffen Kampeter said "debt is a national responsibility".

"I don't see any strategies where we socialise and redistribute the bad political decisions made by some who are over-indebted."

The German government has already ruled out full "eurobonds" for now.
(ETA: The ". . . for now" in the last sentence of the excerpt continues to bother me.)

Someone needs to tell Mr. Market that Germany isn't going to back-stop all of Europe.
