living the american dream so no insurance Since when does "living the dream" mean choosing to go uninsured?

  "living the american dream" has indeed started to be used rather sarcastically in foreign parts, for exactly this reason. Your dream, everybody else´s nightmare.

  Living the american dream as in being self employed and attempting to make your mark. America reveres the self starter and the entrepreneur. Unfortunately for small business owners that can often mean not being able to afford insurance. They did not choose to have no insurance, they were poor. Perhaps life choices led them to being poor but to suggest it was a cognizant choice is a little disingenuous.
