197. Oops. My mistake. I meant post 78, not 73:
"If she were spending her own money, she would have made a contribution, not a loan.

Instead, she's now spending your money to pay herself back. With interest."


Definition of assertion: Something declared or stated positively, often with no support or attempt at proof.

Definition of assumption: Something taken for granted or accepted as true without proof.

The above statement certainly fits the definition of an assertion. I suppose it also fits the definition of an assumption -- not necessarily mutually exclusive (an assertion can be based on an assumption).

Still, its far beyond your claim that all you did is raise the question. You may have posed it as a question in some posts, but in most you've asserted/assumed it, "with no support or attempt at proof".
