I question this premise.
Chapters have fees because associations have fees; they should follow
the laws and customs of their geography and a one-size-fits-all global
regulation would be a big mistake. (It might even be illegal in some
jurisdictions for some associative forms.)
I also question your secondary premise that interested people are left
out by fees, and I encourage you to demonstrate this claim.
