Playing the demo I found that the budget sliders do not lock when I double click them or right click them. Am I missing the way to do it or is it not a feature now? 
Do the sliders lock?

They lock in other Paradox games. As the game plays I watch the sliders move back and forth, away from the setting I made.
The taxes in particular, I set them and then watch them move back and forth as the game plays through.

the sliders never move. only your +/- budget changes according to your income. your spending, which you control over the sliders, stays always the same.
after you play for more than 24 h straight, the sliders WILL start moving whenever you look at them
Unless you get a new government, which requires certain minimum or maximum slider settings. Maybe that's what causes confusion for the OP...
I think you're mistaken. You don't set the tax money you collect, you set a tax rate. Since the pops get different money each day, the tax you get as a result of your tax rate goes up and down along with it. The tax rate however does stay the same.
