it is a magma flow that comes from the center of the volcano
A hot spot, a place where volcanic activity has occured for many years, is caused by small streams of magma moving upward toward the crust. If a hot spot occurs between two tectonic plates, a volcano could form.
A Hot spot is stationary in time and burns though the solid lithosphere creating an island through volcanic eruptions. The lithosphere is separated into plates that move around so if a hot spot occurs under an oceanic plate it forms a island and as the plate moves (and the hot spot does not) it forms a chain of islands (as the plate moves over the hot spot). This is how the Hawaiian chain is formed.
hot spot are that places on the earth where there is the chances of magma emission
Mount Shasta is not associated with any known hot spot, it is part of the Cascades Volcanic Arc. This arc was created with the subduction that occurs off the coast of Northern California, Oregon, and Washington.
Villarrica is a hot spot

There are more than just five hot spots throughout the whole Earth. There is the Tasman hot spot, the Hawaii hot spot, the Galapagos hot spot, the Yellowstone hot spot, Easter Island hot spot, Bouvet hot spot, St. Helena hot spot, the Canary Islands hot spot, and then Iceland hot spot.
The hot spot volcanic activity is not dependent on the subduction and melting of oceanic crust. The hot spot simply appears to be a non-moving place in the Earth's mantle where heat rises from the interior.

it is not a hot spot they can afford a police system
No. It is a volcano. It was formed by a hot spot.
