It's really not as difficult as it sounds once you know what your options are. There are plenty of protein supplements out there that are slightly cheaper than meat (in England we have Quorn, Soya and Tofu) and a bit healthier too. You can also find protein in a lot of places where you wouldn't expect. Here's a useful chart:

I'm a meat eater, and although I think I should eat a bit less meat, I don't plan to become a vegetarian.

I strongly suggest you don't vote and get to a doctor.

I've recently turned vegetarian as a NY resolution and I'm just interested to see who else is, or who else isn't. Moral discussion is also very welcome!
