Death Panels Being Taught In School?

In a report from Fox News in St. Joseph-Ogden High School in Illinois, an assignment asked students to choose who will live and who will die. The assignment was about 10 people that needed kidney dialysis, the local hospital only has 6 dialysis machines. The students were asked to put a numeric value to that person's life.  The 1-10 rating put 1 - 6 would live, while 7-10 would be left to the fate of their diseased liver. The teacher said it was an assignment to demonstrate peoples social bias, but as argued by Todd Starnes of Fox News, there were other ways to demonstrate this other then through an assignment picking who will live and who will die.
