I want to start a community group.
We take in No United States money.
Members have signed a document that they rescind any of
their rights or obligations before any court of the United States,
Instead they agree to have all matters that may arise resolved by our own
Arbitration policy.
My question is:
Can I run this group, without being under the jurisdiction of the government ?
No Licenses,
No State Incorporation,
No State benefits,
Basically no obligation at all outside the group.
If the answer is YES, then what must I avoid doing so that I maintain that free status.
If the answer is NO, is there anything I could do to put this group outside any other jurisdiction ?

No. If it is in the United States, Federal, state and local laws apply.
